2013!
Yet again it is another new year... Needless to say because I am super boring I stayed in on NYE and promptly fell asleep well before midnight, hahah. Rubbish, I am it.
So far 2013 has been quite busy. I've had a few days off work this week which has been nice. Most of it has been spent pottering around the house doing domestic stuff, but mum and I ( Read more... ) -
Long time no post!
I've been absent for rather a long time, but I am still alive! I am STILL slaving away at Baileys having failed to get any interviews for any job I have applied for recently. Which really really sucks because I know my friend Rachel is planning to leave soon to be a full time painter... I won't be able to cut it without her, she makes everything so ( Read more... ) -
Cat and Mouse
Doctor Martens didn't get back to me about the Bull Ring job which has fucked me off so much. I haven't even had a rejection email yet. I haven't found anything else to apply for yet... :( It's so tiring constantly realising that I am stuck where I am. I know it is a job and I do try to remember that I could be jobLESS but still. Working for Sally ( Read more... ) -
Woop, sunshine!!
If you read my latest posts, you'll know i applied for a job at Doc Martens in Birmingham. The closing date was last Sunday, and i havent heard anything yet, but i'm hoping this week might be when they start contacting people. I was beginning to feel really pessimistic about it, until i just went on facebook and saw that my Nooface (who lives in ( Read more... ) -
Black Books and Harry Potter
The Mary Portas article in the Telegraph Magazine is imminent; look out this Saturday if you are near a copy. Her page is all about the shop I work in. I am still petrified about what she might say... Any small thing that Sally and Mark could pick over will be seized upon and we will be in trouble. They weren't there you see, but myself, Donna and ( Read more... ) -
Making Hay, getting a Warning, saving a life (temporarily) and other stories
Mum and i went to Hay Festival again this year :) We went for a mooch round the town first which was nice. Then we raided the Oxfam bookshop on the festival site for a good hour, coming away slightly laden down with a copy of Johnathan Strange and Mr Norrell which is signed by the author. HEAVY.
We saw Ian Rankin talking about his life as a writer ( Read more... ) -
Awkward :/
I mentioned a couple of entries ago about a thing called Herefordshire Art Week (hArt) that happens every year. Normally Baileys have something going on in the cartshed room for it. I may also have mentioned at some point that my friend Rachel who also works at Baileys part time is an artist. So this year Baileys are featuring Rachel's work for ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
I am aware that I am ALWAYS saying this, but it's MAY already...!!!! .....How..?!
Anyway, last week I was in Portugal with my Mum, and I am sincerely wishing we were still there. It's bloody cold here right now. It was a bit rainy there too, but at least it was mostly warm. And I've seen the SEA. We went to the most beautiful beach I've seen in my ( Read more... ) -
Updating, I am rubbish at it!!
Life is rolling along at an alarming pace. Various events, some pretty damned awful and others reasonably exciting (to distract me from the awfulness) have happened. This may turn into an epic tome ( Read more... ) -
I must be mad...
... BUT you knew that already, yes? This weekend I have so far been in Birmingham, London and now my beloved Bristol. All because of Kill Hannah ( Read more... )
