I really am awful at this keeping up to date malarkey. I really, honestly, meant to write about The A-Team and blister plasters, but apparently life got it the way. Still, it’s been plaguing my mind ever since.
It is a good thing, though… Life getting in the way. I have a job – not sure if I’ve mentioned it. A proper job, 9-5.30, as ADMINISTRATOR for a surveying and telecoms company. It sounds dull, but the workflow is constant and and pay is good. It’s a good company, as well. They seem to treat the employees pretty well. I’ve been there for three and a half weeks and I’m learning things and putting some of my IT sills into practise… I’m happy with it. That part of my life is alright.
Not living with Alex is really getting to me. I’m not even upset anymore, just annoyed. It’s just a matter of waiting, though. Waiting until he hears from the various things he needs to hear from (next month, I think?), waiting until I’ve paid off my overdraft and got some savings, waiting for… I don’t even know what else.
Oh, and the time is DRAGGING. I should be thankful, I guess. Life is short and all that. No, wait… That’s not what that saying is meant to be about at all.
Alex was here for a few short days (time wasn’t dragging that weekend) and we saw Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. I loved it, even though I haven’t read the comics. I’ll try to get hold of them, as I have the money to do that now. Actually, that’s an incentive not to buy the beautiful dress from Trashy Diva that costs $145. I’m not sure how much that is in sterling. Nor do I care as I won’t be buying it.
It’s just that… No matter how girly I become, I always have this niggling thought that.. They’re only clothes. I can get cheaper clothes that’ll do the same job. I could spend that money on something cool, like games for the Wii or books or… I don’t know.. Other stuff.
The one girly thing I definitely will splash out on though, is another pair of Carvela shoes. My favourite shoes have now become my work shoes, so now I need some comfy going-out shoes.
Having money has made me realise that all the things I wanted before, I don’t actually need. I’d rather spend it on going to London, like I did this weekend, and doing fun things.
London was fun. I’ll leave that for another post. Let’s just say: Street Yoga.
