I'm back!!
Sorry I've been so quiet! My computer broke down and I couldn't get it working again so I had to get a new one. I couldn't really afford it but it had to be done, I hate not having a computer!
So what's been happening in my life? Not a lot because I'm having to work all hours to pay for the new computer. I got a portrait commission which should help a lot but it's going to be a total nightmare trying to find time to fit it in! I'm so glad I'm drawing from photos and not doing actual sittings, that would be even worse.
I'm still having a great time with G! He's just as wonderful as ever but we're spending more time at mine now because his flatmate is very irritating. Honestly, he just has no idea of when to leave us alone! And he plays his stupid music when I'm around even though I've asked him not to because I find his taste in music quite offensive. The other day he and G had a party and The Flatmate kept offering me crisps even though he knew they were beef flavoured and I had told him I'm vegetarian. He thinks he's so funny. I spoke to G about him but he just said that he can't do anything about it because The Flatmate actually owns the flat. *sigh*
I'm looking for a new job too. The one I'm in is quite interesting as shop work goes but it doesn't pay very well because it's an independent shop. I might have to swallow my pride and get a job with one of the chain stores just to make paying the bills a bit easier.
(Right now I'm wondering if I can persuade G to move in with me instead of renewing his current lease next month. I might be moving a bit too fast but we get on so well together and I'd love to have him near me all the time. Then maybe I wouldn't have to work in a less pleasant environment, since we'd be splitting the rent and bills and things. He's visiting his sister at the moment but I think I might ask him about it in a few days when he gets back.)
