So the great news in my world is that I am now employed again!
I now work for a book publisher, in a fancy office!
It is a lower paying job, but they did offer me as much as they could, and they seem really excited to have me there because of my varied experience. I am learning allot already too.
Other great news:
-After tomorrow and only being there 4 days, they will have taken me out for lunch twice! I feel like a princess!
-My office has a window! (it looks into the warehouse but still adds allot of natural light)
-Next month Chris and I will move into a house that is actually more house than shed!
-Said house will have a DISHWASHER!
-Said house will have a real sized wardrobe in each of its THREE ROOMS!
-Said house will no have classroom-grade carpet squares on the floor!
-Said house will have a HUGE pantry!
-The Muppet movie did not disappoint!
-Tomorrow I will try Yum Cha for the first time!

Also
I had the job interview today for the book publisher. I think it went OK if you disregard that for the first few questions I forgot how to talk and give intelligent answers. "Um... sorry I have forgotten what I was saying" *slaps face
The main reason I am unsure about this one is that it is for a junior position and although I don't have any publishing experience, I don't think they want to pay me enough money. The crap thing is they are also advertising a senior position but I don't have the experience necessary for that one, so I am kind of stuck in the middle. Oh well I will know what their decision is on Friday, I just wish I could do it again because I keep remembering things I forgot to say.

Time again to cross everything
I have a job interview Tuesday...Yay!
It's my third so far (the first two were unsuccessful) and I am all full of butterflies.
The job is for a Graphic Designer at a book publishing house, that is large and also close to home. So I actually have not much idea about what exactly the job would entail... BUT THE LICENCE HELLO KITTY!
A few things are sitting as questions in my mind, the main one being will I get this one.
But seriously, the position is for a junior role, and I have over 5 years experience, but not in publishing so maybe it evens out?
Hopefully some time soon I will get to dress like a normal person again, I will again become accustomed to wearing a bra for more than an hour a day (when I leave the house or walk the dog).
