all play and no work makes sara a lazy girl...
I figured I should update, if only so someone can read this and check up on me and make sure I'm doing what I'm supposed to.
Basically, I've become rather content where I am, even though I know I don't want to be in this house for much longer. But it's so easy just to forget to do things like get together a cv and find a damn job. Oh, and save money. Yes, some things are helping with that. Like the lovely package I got from 'Manda with cigs to last a while and new pj pants so I'm not always lounging around in dirty ones. I think I'll send her something nice for her birthday...I know it's near Ant's.
But today, while I have the computer for two hours while Ant watches his silly sci-fi shows, I will try to remember to work on my cv. I need to get a job quick, so people don't ask why I've been unemployed for so long. And I need to look online and see if I can find a person for at least one more reference from an employer. I did manage to find the courage to email the evil camp director and ask for a reference. And he wrote such a sweet and nice email in reply that I can't think of him as evil anymore. Damn that man!
As to saving money, the cigs will help, hell, the whole package with a carton of nice marlboro's (ultra lights, which I can't seem to find anywhere but Gatwick's duty free shops), and two packs of cloves, AND the pj pants cost less than I would have paid for the same amount of marlboro's over here. That's really sad. We do want to visit my parents in March, before the summer prices hit plane tickets hard. And they've been expecting us since December. It's just so damn much for us both to travel. I could manage the trip, and I will go alone if we can't afford Ant's ticket, but it'd be nice to have him along. He can sweeten my dear stepmother while I hide in the kitchen making her nice meals and maybe do a baking of bread. It's not that I don't want to see them alone. It's just...a week with my parents without them getting to know Ant will be rough. And it's not like I can escape to G'boro if I get sick of them. Maybe I'll convince Ant to let me stay a week longer to see my friends. Anyone know when spring break is for most of my crazy friends in college?
Ant and I have gone a little book crazy lately. I need to stop buying books. Even if I do buy them online at cheap prices.
Someone check up on me tonight at about 9 to see if I'm actually working on my cv? Please?
