Aye aye
Spoke to Cludgie yesterday and she reminded me that I had been telling everyone I was applying for jobs and had interviews, but hadn't updated anyone on what had happened... so I'm filling in the gaps now!
I went for an interview for training so I can move into online publishing at the BBC (and out of radio). The training is what I need to help me when I apply for jobs working on BBC websites. Anyhoo, I was accepted to join the training programme and hopefully I'll start that over the coming weeks - maybe before Xmas. And that's it. Not a job, but the first step to help me move into New Media.
Other news: I almost had a scrap in the street the other night cos some louts were making a racket in my closey. I tore down the stairs like John Rambo (except without the bandana)... (or the muscles)... (or the Palseyed bottom lip)... (STOP! you get the joke) and managed to get three to step into the street purely by eyeballing them, the fourth only went flying through the doorway on the end of my trainer, but come the fifth I realised the error of my ways and called the cops to deal with him. (Honestly, 12-year-old boys can be a handful)
But, I actually had a bigger argument with the guy on the end of the 999 line! He lectured me about people tying up emergency lines with minor and irrelevant queries, then I started barking at him that I didn't have a spider in the bath, but actually had a reason to call. When the cops finally called me back it was about 0200, and most veins on my neck were popped through frustration. I tried lecturing him about customer service and that I could have been kicked to death in the street. He cleverly said yes, sir. Point taken. Good night and hung up!
And that's the highlight of the paast month.
I've not had a drink in 3 weeks now, have taken to eating sweets (Double Deckers, mainly) to give me something to look forward to, and have nudged over 15stones in weight. I gotta lose some pounds.
Glad to hear mum had her a**e scan and hope Moya's is on the mend.
Na noo, na noo
