Well, it'll be new to you anyway... and it's FAST!

There's only the slight issue of not being able to see through the windshield. Other than that it looks like a great deal!

Thanks Blar that's nice of you.

Have you got family or friends that you can stay with?

Family is not in the picture. Friends, I doubt it. I still have time to explore, though already beginning to be over stressed about it.

I forgot I had a scope down my throat this morning (jokes?) it was the most horrible experience of my life, it was like a ****ing cable. I just remember being heavily sedated and them pulling it out, I think I was being sick or boaking but I think it's good news, no stomach ulcer.

So, the law firm I sent my resume' to has emailed me asking me to fill out an information form before they further consider me for employment in their I.T. department. I filled it out, of course, with the caveat that I'm teaching a class for 2 hours, 3 times a week.
I'm not sure what they're going to do with that, should they want to hire me, but it's not out of the realm of possibility that they would be ok with me being absent for 2 hours 3 times a week until the semester is over. If they call me, then that would be nice, as I can just drop the regular classes I'm taking, still get paid for teaching the one I teach, and simultaneously have a full time job as well that will also be there when I finish the semester.
Here's to hoping!

I understand that the social security system in some places is quite different to the UK version. I imagine you are getting stressed, how long have you got to find a job and is it definite that your flatmate will lose their job?

Finally got a call back for an interview tomorrow. Hoping it's fruitful.

My wife found a dead kitten in our driveway today, an adorable little gray and white guy. When I came home tonight after a particularly shitty day of work, I had to figure out what to do about it. I couldn't bring myself to simply put him in the trash so ended up burying him in an empty lot next to us with what I can only assume were his family standing around meowing at me. I'll be honest, it was really heartbreaking.
