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.
