Drama drama

Well crikey I havent posted in a while as the goings havent been too good lately. I had some cool comments about the blog being like a window into my mind (thanks by the way!). Well if you could look in at the moment it would be raining. Possibly thunderstorms. Bah. The stupid NHS cut my job so I am unemployed at the end of the week! Its a disaster as there is a lot I want to see and do here in London but now I cant as none of it is free. Bummer. I can't decide what to do next either. I dont think I want to stay in my current line of work but I dont know what else I want to do. I did have it pointed out to me by a flatmate though that lapdancing is still an option. Oh hurrah. There is a job opening in Birmingham but I am not ready to move there just at the moment...too much is happening here and all the friends I have made live here! Oh see, raining in my head again. I don't know what to do. Luckily I was getting paid quite well while it lasted so I have some time to find something else and use my savings for rent. But I would prefer to use my savings on shoes. Thems the breaks I guess. I still love it here...the other day I found out I can see the London Eye from my bedroom. I am unreasonably excited about that. Its made me really cheesy in a 'I am so lucky to live in London' kind of a way. Oh I make myself sick!

Otherwise, before potential destitution threatened (isn't it funny how destitution and prostitution have a similar ring to them?) I managed a trip to Stonehenge and Bath. Stonehenge was a giant yawn. You cant get anywhere near the stones and most of the other tourists there looked like about the same vintage of some of the rocks. It was something that I thought must be done though (at least lonely planet seemed to think so). Bath was next and I really really liked it a lot. Went into the Roman baths (bit boring after Rome itself) and managed to push my way around. I had a little listening commentary thingy like a mobile phone that you put to your ear and get a commentary after putting in certain numbers depending where you are standing. My first handset alarmed when I first put a number in. I had to traipse all the way through the baths with it screaming, getting very dirty looks. My second one didnt want to work at all which although irritating, let me get out of there faster. I am sure some of the commentaries were "now are you looking at the relics? Now stop where you are and stand still. Yes thats right, block the path for everyone and irritate the people behind you. Ignore them bumping into you". It was mad full of people.

My cousins are coming soon so am looking forward to that...hopefully I will have a job so we can do some wild and crazy things. Like go shopping. And also to the ministry of sound. That one I cannot wait for. Ah I need a job!!
