It's been awhile since I posted up anything and I figured after reading about seven blogs, three from Fel and four from Dan I thought I'd get on and write a quick update, nothing too over the top, no theme just my general thoughts right now.
So I've been working nearly three months now and things have been a mix, I hated the first two months with a passion, christ is it heart shattering and soul destroying to begin with. Now it's not too bad, it's gotten to that stage where I'm finally getting along with the other members a little more, I'm getting slightly faster and despite it being just a job at the Co-Operative, the pay actually isn't too bad, though it's not enough as I need at least another eight hours, housing benefits still help me get that little bit more to pay the rent, buy food and naturally live. Course now council tax has suddenly sprung up on me like a skanky whore trying to lunge upon the streets looking to buy a rustler burger ONLY TO CRASH TO THE FLOOR AND FAIL! (Many thanks to Dan Reed for the over dramatic metaphor.)
Or so I hope. I live in a one room flat, sharing a the toiletries such as bathrooms and toilets themselves with no community living area, y'know like a lounge the flat mates can sit around during the day. I'm sure there's a few more reasons why I should not be required to pay council tax.
Boring subjects aside.
I'm currently at my Grandparents, I felt like doing this blog now before leaving to head off to do what I need to do to sort out the above statements. It is interesting to note that certain features about my Grandparents are bothersome. Though I love them with all my heart, the house itself is rather, well, falling apart around me, I won't get into that though I swear I just heard my Grandfather mention 'maggots' but now I realise he was talking about something else, thank goodness. See my Grandfather is a very lovely man, very kind, very in tune with nature, but does complain a lot, then he complains about people complaining too much, when half the time we're complaining about him complaining. My Grandmother is wonderful, bless her, my only negative thoughts are that she often asks if I've eaten, when I've ate five minutes ago in front of her, she smokes, and she doesn't like Friends. She told me that again last night. Despite these minor indifferences I do really love spending time with them, however I can imagine I'd spent a lot more time with them if they lived in a much better house.
Speaking of smokers though, I was watching the TV explain about people smoking and all that crap and that you shouldn't be allowed to do so in cars, on the streets, and them mentioning about it just should be banned altogether. I hate smoking as much as the next person but bloody hell let them do what they want. Some stupid woman on there was explaining that she thinks "You know when you get up to go for a smoke to calm you down, it's not the cigarette that calms you down it's the fact that you got up, to go outside." Yeah well I bet the fact they're getting their twenty minute nicotine fucking helps. Take away the cigarette and have them go outside and they will NOT get the same calming affect. Now I agree that it should be made illegal to smoke around children thanks for pointing out the obvious. That was all they spoke about; the obvious and the stupidity. It smoking was banned all over, christ that'd take a while for the smokers out there to quit rioting.
Finally I'd like to mention that working at the Co-Op I find myself seeing my friends less and less. My boyfriend is easy enough to see because he practically lives with me. But hopefully I should be seeing Dan and Stacey tonight. Kay and Darrell sometime during the week probably and anyone else whenever. Another thing I notice is my love for more new songs that get released as time goes on. Listening to the Co-Operative radio naturally allows me to listen to new songs and every now and then I start to really enjoy them like Take That's 'Love Love', Caro Emerald's 'Night Like This' and Narina Pallot's 'Put Your Hands Up'. Just interesting how I can find songs I don't usually look out for on the radio and begin to enjoy. Also recent advert at the Co-Op that I really dislike; "Hola Amigos! It's Mexican tonight!" Fuck off I don't want Mexican food tonight, quit telling me what I should eat for dinner every twenty minutes.
Well that's all I wanted to mention right now, I think I'll write about something game related again next time as it seems people enjoy me talking about computer games mostly. I'd also still like to write a three-way blog where me, Dan Reed and Dan Naylor talk about the same thing just to see how our blogs are different.
Now to get up, go to the Council, sort some shit, then tidy my flat before tonight. Off I go!
