on the couch.

Yes, well it certainly has been a while. Presently I sit on the couch in our luxurious living room. I have spanish learning paraphenalia surrounding me, as well as old newspapers, magazines and used coffee cups. The house is abuzz today- uni has been neglected by the housemates, instead undertaking last minute assignments. There is also excitement as there are two tradesmen on the roof of next door dismantling an old shed. I awoke to their hankering, and the three of us were contemplating whether we should go and sunbake in our bikinis in front of them, or offer 'light refreshments'. Bit of a laugh, really.

After working every day last week, I now currently find myself unemployed (again). I happily bade the most recent of workplaces adieu, we weren't too compatible. Yesterday I spent doing glorious things, which require time, and freedom. Parents have generously donated some fun times money, including getting a haircut and buying a 'trashy mag'. It also included getting Merida all fixed up, and I now feel safe going down hills, instead of feeling like riding a billycart.

Today is much the same- this whole week I have no plans, really, so I intend to get my life further back into order. Sort out centrelink, restock my fridge basket with goodies from the Queen Vic markets, catch up with some friends, buy some underwear, you know the deal. Yesterday I also vacuumed the shed which made it a helluva lot nicer, actually making me WANT to be there. Good times!

I may have landed a job doing business at the Birrarung Marr, except no plans have been arranged as of yet. That would be mad fun though. I'm also inquiring into volunteering with the Fitzroy Learning Network as a headstart to Argentina, and also checking out the local Amnesty group. I have way more energy for doing things like this when I'm not working 10-6.30. I also feel a lot more happier when the sun is shining. Funny, that.

At the end of all this, I know I am going overseas quite soon, to have fun times with fun people. Subsequently it is difficult to get too depressed about much. The only catch is the money. Huzzah!!! I'll devise a scheme....

Take care, babies.
