Week 3 - tunnel vision

So, week three.

Today.

Exactly.

So how do I feel? Grand. The credit card is almost maxed out, which doesn't bother me too much. I should be getting paid at the end of this week. I'm sure I can find a way to survive.

I'm in my own place. Which is wicked. The only thing that sucks is the fact that when it comes to dinner time there are a million billion people in the kitchen.

It's a small room, but I pay for the privallage of not having to share a bathroom.

The bath room is basically a shoe cupboard with a loo on one end and a hose at the other. But it's all mine.

We've got sky, said the landlord. He lied. The digi-box doesn't even work in my room. I now have the BBC and on a good day I'll have ITV4 as well. Furniture is new, said the landlord. He lied. The wardrobe doors fell off the first day I got there. We have a cleaner come in every week, said the landlord. He lied. Well, I don't know, haven't been there on cleaner day yet.

There is a silver lining.

I've gone to see a Band of Horses, they were good. The gig was small and intimate, but their songs are wicked. I went and saw The Editors, they were good and loud and made me want to bop around all the old folks. Tomorrow I go and see Chelsea play some greeks.

So it's not all bad my pets. Not all bad at all.

Things are looking up. Two weeks ago you were staying with the boy for lack of other options with no work on the horizon.

Baby steps dear...baby steps!

I think not having to share a loo is well worth being grateful for. It might not be much but it's all yours.
