Well, I'm back in Oxford for a while - till Friday anyway. Holiday in Verona was nice, though, as I reported at the time, squashed, hot and occasionnally grumpy. We now have my grandmother staying with us, which is odd, as we've lived in our house 20 years and this is the first time she's seen it.
Dammit, why is this house so hot? I guess it muct be the weather.
I'm sorry if I've been out of touch with people - the computer monitor at home broke, so we haven't been able to use it at all and I've only just checked email. If I don't reply to something you wanted an answer to, do send it again, I may lose track of stuff.
I had forgotten what a mess I'd left this room in after doing all my packing - it's appalling and rather disheartening. Doesn't feel much like home yet. I now have a second chest of drawers - I'm *hoping* everything will fit in when I bring my new bookcase too *and* a desk. If not, it might have to go in the garage :-/
Tomorrow I have counselling, and on Friday I am off to Cambridge to Christi's birthday. I've just realised I don't know if I replied and said I wanted crash space. I *do* need somewhere to sleep in Cambridge if anyone can offer it. I'm off the following morning back to London, where I'll stay till Monday, and come back to Oxford in the car with the furniture and my grandmother then.
Oh yeah, in other news, I don'thave a job to go back to after all, partly due to the Tax office being really weird and asking my employers for forms which suggested I had found something else. WEIRD. Anyway, I have to hoick my CV about again. Yay me. I thiknk I'll not worry too much till after BiCon to be honest - that's the weekend of the 16th. I'll probably take it into Brook Street before then, and maybe Reed, but I don't really have the time or energy for lots of agency tests and interviews yet.
Oh, tomorrow (Thurs) 7pm, Ultimate Picture Palace cinema (Jeune Street, Oxford) I'll be seeing the final showing of 'Bend It Like Beckham' if anyone would like to join me. Call or just meet me outside - I probably won't check email beforehand.

Date: Thursday, 8 August 2002 03:52 am (UTC)I'm not in Cambridge tommorow after about 2pm (damn damn damn), but that means if you need crash-space, my bomb-si^W^Wroom is unoccupied. Just ask my housemates...
