A return

How times, they are a changin'. Or something. So I gave up on this blog, almost as quickly as I started it, which was maybe unfair. I think a paranoia about my flatmate at the time reading it kicked in. Anyway, so to conclude the previous posts...

I found a flat. It was still a huge stress to get in it, but i found one, and live now with one of the girls I was originally searching with, and a university friend. They both make me laugh like a drain, which I think is important with living companions.

The job... did not work out. I'm back at my old one now (there being the beauty with local government secondments). Turns out my new manager was a insecure, controlling bitch-troll-from-hell nightmare and I had to run for my life. At the time I was desperate for the phrase 'what goes around comes around' to be true, but highly doubtful that it would be in this situation. But now a few months have passed, and her reputation is slowly going to the dogs, which, as immature as it may seem, pleases me greatly. And this is not as a result of me telling everyone she's a nightmare, as much as I would have loved to. Alas dear reader, I am too professional for that, but it turns out I didn't even need to, as her behaviour does it all for me.

My knee...is still a mess. Mainly because I never do the sodding physio exercises assigned to me. But I did go to China and walk the great wall. Had my heart broken in the process but I think that's another post.

And my sister got married. Turns out the bridesmaid dresses would be the least of the drama, when it transpired barely 2 weeks before the big day that no one thought she should marry the guy. My sister found out and raged hell, we were all uninvited then re invited then uninvited again, before everyone took breath, took a truly British approach and just ploughed on as if nothing had happened.

I think it's true what my mum's friend said, diaries are the best way to remember how you felt at a point in time. I'll amend that to diaries and emails. I'm going to try and keep up with both.
