Drive-by post!!! Currently at the mother's waiting to pack more furniture. I have my own place. YAY! Can you believe that in this rental crisis, with people biting each other's legs off for a rental house in Sydney, the first house I liked and applied for (that's right my very first rental application at all), went through and I won???? I got struck by lightning luck!! The agent did give me a nudge though because he let slip that no one else had seen the property at all, it was just listed, and I was seeing it late Saturday afternoon. Which meant no one would be seeing it until Monday so if I got my application in on Monday and the owner was sweet it was all mine. My roomie was working flat out that week and hadn't even seen it when we won and paid the bond. Now THAT'S trust. I suppose she knows how anal I am and that I wouldn't get all excited about fixer-upper property (I may not lack imagination, but I am LAZY, lol).
Yay! Goody goodness.
Almost.
It does cut both ways since my roomie's lease doesn't end until the end of the month so I'm currently taking on the full rent by myself and that is tight to say the least.
On other things, I got to train in a couple of different and mind expanding things at work. Which is good. The job still has major low points but I'm not complaining at all. I'm happy to be stable at work at the moment even if I have to get up at six every morning (gah - HATE mornings).
I have no internet and it's a bit strange. I had no computer at all for several days. Getting bruises all over your body from being rammed into walls by couches just doesn't have the same meaning when I can't whine about it to my internet friends. Am I right? :)
I just wanted to say, I miss you all, and I'm doing my best to get hooked up so that I can catch up with you all and, hopefully, be able to research my dang university assignments online again. INTERNET I NEED YOU. Signing up with iiNet may have been a mistake, maybe I should have just gone for the standard Telstra and paid them a kidney for a decent, fast connection. Sigh.
I am stressed (in a busy, semi-positive life way) and in need of a fic. Has anything I read been updated in the last month?? Do you know?? I probably will never find them on my friends list now but if there are big names I should hunt for let me know. Also, right before I lost my internet connection, ContraVeritas went down. And I had just received an alert in my e-mail that Sage had updated "The Fallout". I still haven't read the last chapter. AHHHH! It's like the one dramione multi-chapter fic I still follow religiously. And I'm hanging. Does anyone have a copy of this last chapter? I am willing to offer fic snippets? Or write chapters?? I wants ittttt! Hook a fellow fanatic up!!
Must go, getting the glares, hopefully I'll talk to you all soon!!
