Terroreefied

I haven't washed any clothes for next week. [profile] mamapusscat has asked me for an email detailing shifts and times in London. I haven't sent it yet.

I am a little bit nervous of the new job. What if it doesn't work out?

So I am procrastinating; I don't want to think about it but it's hard to think about anything else; tense and irritable, it becomes easy for me to translate that into irritation with people around me; things they've done/haven't done suddenly magnify in annoyance. I tried to do some gardening, gave up, feeling drained, tried to write, my head groans, aches, doesn't want to play. I just want to sleep.

How I can be scared after the interview is a mystery, nothing could compare with that for sheer OMG factor. But it's my first new job in 5 years and things can still go wrong.

I should be smiling, dancing into the future, and due to a number of tiny emotional twitches, I am not, not quite.

I wish [profile] larians was here. I wish I didn't have to work this week. I wish I wasn't so bloody wet.

The third wish I can grant myself. Time for tea and a cracker.

Thanks for the above, you've really given me heart!

I didn't know anything about Arthur et al being potential terrorists! But in any case, I have no doubts about your suitability to run the community centre - if anyone can turn the poor thing around you can, and as you say, the Morrigan loves challenges...

speaking of which, I would love to join you for Budgie Squawk, though my hours may make my attendance irregular. I'm working till midnight next wednesday, but 17th or 24th see me free for evening stuff...

The Arthur thing is old news (it's four five years sice I was very active on the pagan scene, and it was current then). My new boss phoned me today, iss ahppy to9 accet me with only one reference, (my other referee got a dose of the flakies), so I handed my resignation in today. More in my latest journal entry, it's been a wierd wired day...
