I've just got some pork out of the freezer for later.
It's in a sink full of warm water defrosting, then it's gonna be a stir fry.

I am also stupidly excited about starting work on Monday.

Maybe I should check B3TA a bit more often
Well done! Which one did you get? Not the one in Sunderland?

No, job with Big Lottery I interviewed for in January and didn't get.
They rang me last week as someone had left and they wanted to know if I was still interested. It's temporary, but it's a start, and I can still keep looking in the meantime.

Hats off
It's also work and being gainfully occupied is astonishingly intrinsically rewarding.

Tell me about it.
Whilst the first couple of months of redundancy were quite nice, it soon gets tedious when you're conscious that the money won't last forever... I've been going out to watch nearly every Newcastle match this season as it's about the only chance I get to see some different faces.

This may sound massively contradictory
i.e. being conscious about money and then going out, but I generally only have a couple of pints...

Something I do miss
Although I used to work with a bunch of bellends the interaction aspect is something I don't have now.

It's grant work for the Lottery, so similar to stuff I've been doing for the last ten years.
Pay's not as good as I was on, but they've started me on the band maximum, which is good. I just hope I get an extension on the contract as it's currently only until the end of May.

Knock 'em off their feet, show 'em your the best god damn thing they ever did or could hire. They'll extend that right up.

One or two, best to know your audiance.
Some of sickipedia is great and imaginative, but most of it is "Two pakis set off a bomb in nigger neighbourhood, who has the most loss? Not society" and "Hahahhaha, raping kids.".

With a bit of luck I'll be working with a former colleague.
Which will be nice.
