yes
yes i'm even worse than usual
This is what happens when one pretends to be busy!
So far this week I haven't written chapter 4 of my thesis which is whats supposed to be done...by...tomorrow..uh oh(I think I have 100 words done out of...about...5000....this could be a slight issue!!)
I have however, applied late for a translation contract, started teaching in the university(2 hours a week) got another teaching job on top of that in december/january (4 hours a week for 4 weeks), turned down my dream job(which I was KINDA offered on the phone yesterday moringin...out of the blue)because I have a business starting up in October but I think maybe convinced them that they want me freelancing from october onwards(NB my dream job being subtitling-at this current moment anyway)
so it's been a highly productive unproductive couple of days...
Other than that, a friend of mine (who for the record is 13 1/2 months OLDER than me) pointed out today that I, in actual fact am older than him...and I fear it's true.....i feel old...i want to buy a house(in 2097 after the great apocalypse (rather than the minor one) causes house prices to fall dramatically, of course). I keep thinking about how best to go about sorting out a pension(any advice gratefully accepted!!!). I have the terrible need to go and buy clothes that look like people in offices would wear them (thankfully due to current cashflow issues i've been unable to fulfil this dire fantasy..but it's only a matter of time..). I WORK FOR MYSELF!!! no one cares whether I'm even wearing clothes....(well...actually the girls might prefer I wore SOMEthing but its the principle of the thing!)
In fairness I was never overly good at the crazy teenage/college student/person under 30 thing....but come on now we're getting ridiculous!But then again at least I'm not getting MARRIED like everyone else seem sto be doing...grrr and grrr and fie upon the lot of them!
And to be honest that's about it-i've had a few months of waiting aroud for things to get sorted betwen offices and work and theses and a few weeks of travelling home and back up like a crazy lunatic and now i only have 2 weeks left in a masters that I'm so convinced WILL GET DONE that I have absolutely no motivation to actually do the damn thing...
and people wonder why this gets updated!!!(where are you procrastination man???)
sigh and etc
