I thought he died years ago but I guess that was someone else? I don't really know anything about anything.
I have got some new clothes! New bras (the lady in the shop said you should replace your bras every 4-6 months and my mum and I both burst out laughing - I think the last time either of us bought one was over two years ago), a pair of black trousers, and a new dress. I'm going to a fancy dinner on Friday and the dress code is black tie; the dress I'll wear isn't quite black tie but it'll do if I can find some decent shoes. Sadly all my red heels are in storage, which is exasperating as they'd be perfect.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that in a week or two I'll finally have a job! I applied for this job back in November and at last have returned to the area, completed the paperwork and once that comes back hopefully will be starting.
Also I have come to the definite conclusion that I'm sensitive to lactose. Blood tests insist I'm not lactose intolerant but my stomach says otherwise.

GET ON EM, DUDE.
Seriously. Don't wait for them to call you. I got the job I have now basically by persistantly calling and emailing the HR director (and having friends that work here do the same).

I'm sensitive to it. You just have to figure out which dairy products are bothering you (mine is cheese) and eat less of it.

This sort of sentiment holds true for a lot of things, but really it is not financially feasible to due so. I mean, I was wearing the same pairs of underwear so long (with regular washing) that they started to wear thin and tear. We're talking like 3+ years on the same 6 pairs. Occasionally I will buy another 5 pack because it means I have to do laundry less often.

The squeaky wheel is the one to always get oiled. Call them every day to check up on your application status, companies love persistent people. It sounds crazy, I hate the feeling of bugging the people, but they'll remember your name.

I still have underwear from when I was in high school. I actually have the same jeans from when I was in high school. I'm stuck wearing sweats now cause jeans are expensive and I've gained "happy" weight from moving in with my boyfriend, working on that bit. Lost 20 pounds so far! Squeezing in!
