So it's almost the end of another glorious year....
This year has been... Different. I've now been back from uni for longer than I was *at* uni, which is a tremendously weird feeling and I don't like it at all. It's almost 3 years since I was "let go" from the South Sea and began my "getting fired" streak of three in a row.
Which was nice.
It's also three years since I had a girlfriend, or any kind of relationship that lasted longer than 4 days or 2 failed dates. It's kind've depressing and no matter how hard I try to ignore it it just feels like a gaping hole in my life.
Mostly it's compounded by all my friends finding partners and being invited to their weddings, and there's also the fact I have the most gorgeousest niece in the whole world EVARRR...
(Ladies, you may squee at this point)
Who, despite being a little madam sometimes, has made my brother and sister in law so very happy. I'm reaching the point where some stability might be nice, and the whole long-term thing is looking rather attractive.
On the plus side I still have possibly the best job ever. While it's not without its frustrations, headaches and incredible lows, I still get to pretty much control my working environment, my hours and (in theory) what I'm paid. Working alone can be, well, lonely so I'm glad I have a client I work in-house for, even if they can be a bit miserable at times.
All I ask of 2007 is a little more stability, a little less weight, and possibly someone nice. So, yes, the moon on a stick.
