    I was approached by my manager yesterday, I am being given the full maternity cover, which gives me a job until the school breaks up for Easter next year.

    For those who don't live in the UK, maternity leave is here up to 50 weeks, so maternity cover positions are fairly common. Since I was changing career, I was given an initial offer of up to the end of next month to see how I fare.

    And no, school reception is not easy. But things that are worth it aren't really.

    Not sure if I should post this here or in the not happy thread because it has both its good and bad side, but here goes:

    Currently on a bus that will take me out of the Czech Republic. I've been here for almost 5 months as an exchange student but now it's time for this amazing experience to end. :supercry:

    On the bright side, though, I'm headed to France to start a 3-week train trip through Europe with my brother and a couple of friends. :-D

    Just one week to vacation :love:

    While I'm all packed and stuff I still feel like there are still hundred things to do. There isn't. I could technically leave today!

    Tomorrow's my day off, yeah! Time to get down to some hardcore writing. Or in reality bitching about the fact that I'm not writing while playing games or procrastinating!

    You need to have a talk with your characters.

    OMG.... Some Guy I could drink all your blood right now! The question is 'tis... Am I insane enough?... Is my madness strong enough?... Am I feeling this feeling grow?... Can I sustain it if I plant this seed?... Will I know simply enough to show?... How many times I've tried?... To take this bloody path?... Take the hand as a gift... Slide my fangs in sharply, red, and swift... Silver, swift, and deep... Is my madness strong enough?

    Talk to my own characters? I love this. I haven't just sat down and talked with them in a while...

    Oh I definitely still have a hundred things to do, so maybe try not to show up today, at least not before I've done the washing up!

    It's actually kinda frustrating that all the really fun stuff involving wrapping presents and making cute stuff I could do waaaay before you got here, and so I'm left with cleaning my bathroom to do in the last few days before you get here. But, you know, at least I finally fixed my toilet seat. You don't even want to know the amount of pain and effort has gone into this. But I couldn't possibly have my girlfriend show up and my toilet seat be wobbly.

    But seven more days. And yes, lots of excited. Partially because once you get here I can put up picture of all the cute stuff I got you :blowkiss:

    Yeah, today's my day off too and it's 3PM and I haven't done much of what I'd intended to have done by now. I was meant to do some washing (yes but I forgot to buy some Ariel Colour). I should have cleaned up my room (yes but it's not so dusty yet). I'd planned to do a lot of writing (yes but it's so hot).

    Blood sugar levels have been perfect in the morning. Right at average levels, with minimal rising throughout the day due to certain meals. Wining!

    I'm getting a tax rebate. I wasn't working for a couple of months (I was so fed up with getting zero help and watching the place go down the pan i left without another job lived up, the closest I've done to real life rage quit) so I'm getting an extra £380 in the next few days.
