First day of being unemployed
and I have a horrific hangover.

How would you start this momentous first day of the rest of your life?

I presume your funding has come to an end, if you're postdoc-ing
I will be in the exact same situation come 30th september. Monty's megabash is the very next day, so I shall save up whilst I'm still getting paid and drink myself in to a sullen stupor.

Actually...this seems to have resembled your plan somewhat.

He's saved up enough to be an international playboy* for a while
and then we're both going a-hunting for a place together, yup.
I'll just be looking to go straight from one job to the next because I'm a pauper.

I'm doing good thanks =)
I'm totally a grownup now, I ordered a loan last night and I'm looking at a flat in a few hours that I think I'm going to buy ! It's really cool, has two toilets and two big bedrooms and a small garden area and nice kitchen where I think I can put in all the mod cons.

I'm trying to work into the budget a 3D telly, I'm not 100% I can justify it, but I might be able too. I could put it down as a buisness expenses encase me and you want to make a 3D video.

Don't worry, it'll be pre-production 3D effects, i'll make sure the lighting is flatoring, get some smudge-proof mascara and a Director of Photography to make sure the scenes are all right.
We'd need a good sound guy, to make sure the harrowing yelps and crying (mostly by me) are portrayed to the general wider audiance.

It's just down the road from where I currently am, it's ex-council, but ticks so many of my boxes.
Yup, I'm hoping TGB will be with me, I don't like living on my own, it's much better to live with someone. Plus it's silly for a room to go empty. It has a small office aswel which is awesomeness. and a dinning area so I can have dinner parties. I think I'm going to make the downstairs open-planned too.
(, Sat 25 Jun 2011, 10:30, Reply)
I'm completely the opposite.
I took on two jobs and occasional poverty just so I could live on my own here. I'm too intolerant to share with people, yet my mate Vic's nearly 30 and she's still sharing.
Two bathrooms takes away a lot of the annoyance. Although V saved my life once when I fell asleep in the bath with a hangover.

I think, thinking about it, I was on my tod for about 10 years, and I was working from home, which meant the only daily contact with people I had was shop keepers and phone calls to parents.
I had mates and stuff, but it's nice in the morning to be like "Oh hi, how was your evening?" every day. Sent me a bit mental, which I couldn't see 'till I finished it. I'd rather live on my tod than with someone I don't like though, when Irish was about that was really bad. I also love cooking for people, that makes me happy too.
(, Sat 25 Jun 2011, 10:45, Reply)
I suppose, working from home, yeah.
I go home to NOT speak. I like internetting because nobody's in my face.
But if a friend arranges something social on a Saturday, I'm thinking, "God, couldn't we have done this on Friday when I was in people-tolerant mode, and not on Saturday when I want to be on the sofa in my jarmers."

That's kindda the good thing how I plan my places, that everyone has their own domain where they can chill, and comunal spots are there so there is company if you want it.

This, so many times
I could save so much by living in a houseshare, but I just don't think I could deal with always having people in my space. Company's great when you want it, but I've lived on my own for so long now that I'd probably flip out. And I'd rather be skint and have some semblance of inner peace than have plenty of cash and be constantly on the verge of doing a Columbine.
