Well, today after having enough of waiting to hear from this place, I called them up.  Office manager is away for the week.  GREAT.  So I left a message for her, then asked if the position had been filled, to which the lady replied “Yes, it has”.  WTF??  Where was the courtesy phonecall to let me know!??  I was more than just a little p’d off.  I don’t really care what their reasons are for not having a grain of human decency enough to make a simple phonecall and let me know!!  If the office manager happens to call me next week I’ll be sure to let her know what I think about having been strung along for 2 weeks now.

Back to square one.

I worked a couple of days at the solicitor’s office which was easy money, all I had to do was answer the phone.  It rang A LOT though!!

I went into the chicken shop today, the couple of people there must have known what I was there for because I didn’t have to explain what I was after!!!!  Coming up to Christmas, they are getting busy so need a little extra help!!!  I said I was waiting to hear back from a few places about jobs and may have interviews coming up, they were fine with that and they don’t expect me to work there forever!!!  And even despite me telling them I’ve never worked with food before, they said it wasn’t a problem!!!  Sometimes it really is a case of not what you know (in this case, nothing!!) but who you know (the couple that own the place know my last boss pretty well!!)!!!  I’m excited because every little bit of money will be going towards the holiday I intend to go on in Feb!!!  And they all seem really nice!!!  Hopefully I can handle a couple of hours on my feet!!!

I went to the doctor today, I found a lump in my neck the other day that I hadn’t noticed before!  I wasn’t sure if it had always been there, but it was a little tender so I thought it’s better to get it checked out than to wonder!!  Turns out to be my thyroid gland!!!  I went to have a blood test to check that’s it’s functioning properly!!  It’s not hard to be paranoid about things these days, there are so many things that you need to watch out for!!!  My arm is really hurting now, I've been whingeing all afternoon!!!!

Had a rather funny mishap last night.  I went around to my boyfriend’s house, did some gardening (by gardening I mean I played with the hedge trimmer and trimmed some bushes out the front of his house!!) then sat down at his table to enjoy a cold cup of lemonade.  But in sitting down on the seat, I also managed to sit on the table cloth, pulling the table cloth off towards me and spilling almost the entire glass of lemonade in my crotch!!!!  I came home, dressed in shorts about ten sizes too big and a t-shirt that says “I don’t give a (picture of rat) (picture of ass)”!!!!

Twelve sleeps till Christmas, yay!!!  I can’t wait!!!
