The Sun & The Rain

 


"It's like being molested by a sleeping bag that speaks Comic Sans with little love-hearts over the i's."

"It's not that I mind that my steerage cocoon is a slut, but if I don't get some decent conversation en route, I'll go mad before we arrive."


I'm loving the new book I got. It's beautifully written (although I do have the suspicion I've managed to happen upon sci-fi porn) & so far I've found the story quite engaging. It's definitely the right thing to keep me from having to look at (or talk to) fellow passengers on the train. Not that I mind too much, but they're mostly boring & tend to freak a little if you smile at them.


To no surprise, after that really nice day on Wednesday life threw some minor curveballs... we drowned in rain on Thursday, work was extremely busy & I'm slowly getting fed up with not knowing if I'll get a permanent contract coz I think I'm doing a brilliant job. I probably wouldn't be so pissed off if the pay was any better, but not being able to save money & having to think twice about buying certain stuff annoys me. I know that in some ways I consciously fuqed up the interview at MTV (I didn't really prepare for it, for once) & am now having doubts that maybe that job would've been better than what I've got now. I'm pretty certain that I wouldn't have enjoyed doing sales research again that much, tho.

I didn't go out last night & ended up watching a really bad vampire movie. It wasn't even bad in a good way, it was just plain bad. I still watched Bitten till the bitter end, hoping it would maybe get better, but it just didn't. What a waste of almost 2 hours. The director should be shot, please.

Today, after a nice lie-in until 11am, I trecked over to Camden to spend too much money at Whole Foods, but now got tasty vegan cheeze, tempeh & some other expensive, but presumably tasty snacks. I'm going to Antidote tonight, which I hope is worth the journey to Old Street. Not sure what I'll do tomorrow, I really want to go to that vegan restaurant in West Kensington, but people are broke and/or not interested. Maybe I venture down to Oxford Street & have a browse around the shops. Haven't done that for ages, mainly because I still feel too fat to go shopping & have been quite uninspired as to what look I'd want to go for.

Can we have spring now, please?
