Dear Readers,
It's been a month since my last entry. Of course, if you are on my notify list you know what i've been up to. But here is a potted history for those who aren't (and for myself and my poor memory).

I was made redundant, and as of next Monday i am officially unemployed. Not that i have been idle. I have applied for countless numbers of jobs and been for a couple of interviews. One of those interviews was for a job that is close to my "dream job". I have been foolish enough to set my heart on it, and the endless waiting to here whether Fortune smiles upon me is driving me crazy. Almost literally.

I have met two men that i liked, one of whom i never heard from again. The other... i don't know. I make bad choices with boyfriends. Not that they were all bad, just that we weren't right, and i allowed relationships to go on far longer than they should have.

Or i mistake friendship for romantic interest.

I have made new a friend who shares my love of GO and YA literature, and i anxiously await the birth of Lindsay's baby (This Tuesday).

I have lost and gained weight. I have exercised, and watched too much television.

I have been on holiday for the first time in far too long, and enjoyed myself.

I have got very drunk, and remained sober.

I have visited the library, and curtailed my habit of spending money on books.

I have sorted out books to go to charity, and bought a new (taller) bookcase so that i can take better care of the ones that are left.

I have been postive and been very depressed.

I have told my truth, and found out about the lies of others.

I have been told that i have a "pretty, wee face" and looked in revulsion at the skin on my stomach (wrinkly and flabby).

I have had a french manicure, and done my own. My own been much more to my liking.

I have been grateful to those who have encouraged me and kept me going. You know who you are.
