Mar. 2nd, 2007 05:51 amThings I must remember throughout the course of the day:
1) I love my![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dodgyhoodoo. That and the fact that I wouldn't be able to manage rent alone keeps me from taking him up on his suggestion of cutting his head off as a cure for the snoring that keeps me up nights and, in today's case, wakes me up an hour before I have to be out of bed when my wake-up call is 5:30 am.
2) 8am interviews are not evil. They are merely a show of absolute willing to an agency that is bound to be good to me, as the lady who saw my CV was very enthusiastic and says, among other things, that Canadians are her favourite people in the world.
3) My mother is not a ditz for not ringing me last night or indeed checking her email at all as regards dinner plans. She is merely not one of those people who checks her email every day. This is acceptable, if annoying, and I can always see her on Monday. This is not cause for the grumpy.
4) No matter how cool it looks, I can survive without Sims 2 Seasons for a week or three.
5) Ditto FFXI.
6) We have a new router, which means stable internet access for the first time in a week or so; what more do I actually need at this point?
7) Being unemployed does not make me a useless lump in the current circumstances; it's not like I'm not trying.
8) THIS TOO SHALL PASS.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get dressed up in relatively smart clothes and sell myself to three different agencies over the course of the day. I swear, it's like whoring with a socially acceptable wardrobe.
