I have no balance!!

I'm just leaning on people even more!!!

I had some really good news today. I checked my bank balance online and found that the mortgage set-up fee had been taken out. This means that the mortgage is going through as planned and that they accepted my credit card as ID. I'm not going to tell them that it was applied for and successfully accepted online. I suppose the fact that I have a credit card is proof that I am credit worthy and my credit records will match-up with the details on the application form.

I phoned Wayne as soon as I got in and organised a meeting for this morning (oh how sweet it'll be to lose the day/night confusion) so we're going to go through what happens nexty and look at insurance figures. I think I will just nod politely and ignore anything he has to say on the matter - he's a mortgage advisor, I think I can deal with the insurance side of things...

Great news - I got a mail from Charlie at her new workplace telling me that she wouldn't lose touch - things are looking rosier. It's funny how it goes in cycles isn't it? One minute you can be feeling like the brunt of some kind of Cosmic joke and then, suddenly, you are riding high again - fantastic.

I'm really beginning to look forward to my time off now. This is my last night in work until next Tuesday so I'm going to kick back and have some REAL fun. I have already promised Colonel Roberts (me new mate) that I'll have a few drinks with him via IRC - sad but funny and just at the moment I am being entertained by Merkin (who I hope I'm entertaining too). She hasn't been feeling well today so I'm trying to keep her smiling. Che is back from her trip to Lake Tahoe where she seems to have had big fun. She's had a bit of bad news today which I'm not going to go into (though she has blogged about it and you know where the link is) so, to the pair of them:

BIG HUG

It seems my two favourite ladeez will be joining up in Hollywood next weekend - unfortunately I'm not an international jet-setter (you need a passport) so I'll just have to wait for them to tell me all about it.

Back, rested and back to work... Bummer... Enough of the moaning already!! I have just spent one of the most amazing weeks of my life with some of the most special people I know and I'm riding high because of it. So what have I been up to? Funny you should ask... I got tattooed. It's been a long time coming (somewhere around 15 years) but I finally found something that I would be happy spending the rest of my life with. I had often thought about the usual stuff, things like band names or other pop culture icons that would instantly tell people who I was or maybe even something a little out of the ordinary. At one point I had the idea of combining the lot and having a barcode tattoo which would actually be the barcode of my favourite album. The problem there is that opinions change as does technology, barcodes will become obsolete and I would be left with the equivalent of a tattoo that reads two-and-sixpence!! Inspired by the lovely Ms Hamstera I went to a tattoo pa...

Very short and sweet today but there is another good reason. This will be my last entry until I have moved to the new house and got myself sorted out. Thankfully not very much has happened but I feel like I've accomplished quite a lot. I have organised a moving posse for Tuesday which includes (drumroll) The Colonel!! He is taking time out to come up from Exeter just to see me and to help me move - what a guy. Alex is going to borrow a big van from his Dad and everyone else has offered to muck in for the night. Looks like everything is going to go swimmingly. I will be back on Wednesday (assuming the installation goes through without a hitch) so I'll blog-it-up big then. Cheers to you all and BIG LOVE.

Hmmm... I have to admit that this internet absence thing is becoming weirder by the minute. I haven't dropped it completely like I did a while ago and I have left myself available to some people. It seems that one of those people (who I will refer to as Dave even though it is not her real name) has been "found out". She has/had two blogs - a weebl blog and a personal blog - which I read on a regular basis but they were found by her boss and now she is facing problems because of them. The trouble is that her boss thinks that they over-stepped the mark on a few occasions (especially when she was talking about colleagues and taking "sickies") so they have now been removed. It's a real shame because it has led me to think about what I am writing and how it could effect other people. In all honesty I don't think there is anything that I have written that I would not admit to someone face-to-face, and I'm sure that "Dave's" would say...
