Heh! I'm sitting at a spare workstation in Matt's
office. He had to come in to do some work and invited
me to come with him, I feel like a real grown-up!
Truth be told, I've never actually had a 'real' job,
I've always just worked in retail or the service
industry. There was that summer I spent selling books
door-to-door in Seattle but that was more like a
holiday. And we're not even going to talk about the
months I spent cleaning insurance offices - I lucked
out and got to clean all the washrooms, oh how lucky
I was. (I still wonder where in the evolutionary
ladder men lost the ability to aim.....).
I should be making Christmas presents right now but I'm pissing about updating my webpage. And then I'm going to try to do something with that logo (I will conquer Illustrator, oh yes!).
I need to work out what I want to do with my life.I need to be able to think, to be challenged, to get a feeling of satisfaction when I achieve something, and to make a difference in the world. I've thought of either medicine or law but I don't know if I'm aiming too high. My ADD doctor said that now we've pretty much sorted out the medication I need, the best thing for me would be to go back to school or to take at least one course. He says that although I notice the difference now I'm being treated, my subconscious is still thinking that I'm stupid. He says that I could probably take any course, even nuclear physics or something else I've never studied before, and he'd be surprised if I got anything less that a B. He re-iterated that I'm spectacularly smart and now I just need to believe it myself. I guess he's got a point. Although I'm not entirely convinced that I'm spectacularly smart. hmmmm.....
Arthur is almost back to his old self. He spent two nights in vet hospital and I spent $750 . Meh. He got treated for constipation (which can kill a cat) and then when I get him home he has diarrhoea. Gah! I'm glad to have him back, it's amazing how empty an apartment can feel when there's one cat missing!
I have a crush on some of my customers, is that bad?
And, I should never go shopping when I'm feeling thirsty. I popped into Dominion to get cat food and left with 9 different things to drink! Ho hum!
