Wednesday, March 26th


Today is off to another good start, the guy called me back this morning before I got a chance to call him, thankfully. If I had called him when I was going to I would have missed the basic computer training they did this morning for their systems.

I should hopefully hear from him again by or before friday, then he can tell me I passed the drug test and background check and when I need to go in to start my on the job training (possibly friday). So all in all today is going well!

I have a feeling that I'm going to be getting irritated about the lack of things I have to do today though so I shall have to find something to occupy myself, God only knows what though seeing as there's hardly anything that needs doing around here.
Well, as I thought, my drug test came back perfectly clear this afternoon, I'll be hearing back from the guy again tomorrow once the final person has been cleared to tell me when we start our paid training. I'm really looking forward to getting a bit of money behind me! Then I can finally get my car fixed up (if they dont give me a demo car) and help out with the finances around the house a little, as well as buying myself some bits and pieces, obviously.
Not a lot else to report today really. Not much of a surprise though I have to be honest, I haven't actually done anything except vacuum the car out and sweep the dry grass off of the driveway from yesterday.

Tuesday, March 25th


Well, today was off to a great start.. I got a job offer yesterday, pending a drug test which I should pass, unless somebodies been slipping me stuff without my knowledge. Pretty average as far as days go really, cut the grass (..cleaned the crap off of the tire on the lawnmower, not nice..) sat around for ages doing nothing, that was the low point of my day, obviously. I've gotten used to doing things with my time again recently so sitting around was getting me down. In the end I had to get off of my ass and do something so I decided I would be a gentleman and cook the dinner, which coincidentally I didn't really want to eat because I wasn't hungry and it didn't take nearly as long as I was hoping it would, but never mind hey?!

Around 7 o'clock I noticed that I had 6 missed calls and 2 voicemail messages on my cell phone, I was horrified when I noticed they were all from the guy who I'm hoping will hire me!! Not good! Surely he can't have got the results to my drug test yet though, I only took it yesterday afternoon.. hopefully he'll forgive my lack of phone answering (I'm sure he will if I sling my bull convincingly enough and I'm damn good at that ha ha). Just got to make sure that I call him first thing in the morning, knowing what I've been like this last couple of months I'll be up for about 3 or 4 hours before it's time to call him, I wish I could sleep in longer I really do but it's just not happening for me, sucks.

Can't wait to go back to England for another visit with everyone, I was just there 2 weeks ago but it wasn't nearly a long enough trip for me to get everything done that I wanted to, saw most people I needed to though which is always good. I doubt I'm going to end up with any more than a weeks holiday this year though so it's not looking promising for me being able to go back anytime soon, that kinda bums me out but I'll get used to the idea of having so little holiday time in the states after a while, they get a LOT longer in England.
