I'm back! My month at the comic book store is over and after working 6 days a week for the past month I need a little breather. I will apply to work as a trainee for one more month but that won't be resolved until Mid June at the earliest. I have also offered to work in the store if they need me - both with inventory and managing and, in fact, I might be substitutin next Saturday. That would also be a good way for me to finance my comic book habit !

Sounds quite nice, imho. In my case, in about an hour I'll be either utterly delighted or utterly depressed - depending on whether my sister managed to find the wanted Shaun The Sheep CD single in London or not.

Fingers crossed so it was delight...

Oh, she forgot it. *smirks* I should've foreseen that. *rolls eyes* I'm almost used to that. She said she had so many other things to see and do so she forgot it.
On the positive side, the amazon price for that CD has dropped considerably.

I decided to move again ;D By september my rental contract will be due, and my bf's appartment will be finished in a few weeks (we are painting, new kitchen, new bathroom, new floor etc). So to make things easier (my current place is on the market to be sold) I'm gonna move into my bf's app. I will be living on the 7th floor, right across a big shopping mall. I hate âcking all my stuff once again, but this time there is no rush, I'm not being kicked out and my bf will move with me. And last but not least, the rent is lower, I don't have to buy garbage bags no more (which are very expensive here) and I'll be closer to a grocery store and the city.

That sounds great, Gal! How do you get a good location and low rent?

That sounds like one of Baldrick's cunning plans...

Good that you'll can have it nonetheless, Alrik.
Gal, the rush of packing will depend on how much of a pack rat you can be. ;D

I was born with a crooked loin (not sure if it's the correct expression) and since I was hit by a car in 1999 I've had problems with loin, spine and back pains. It's usually not severe but there's periods where the loin almost locks - leaving me rather immobile as it hurts to even move around. These periods are rather rare but when they hit it usually goes on for up to a week regardless of any excersise I do to help it. Luckily, it's passing for now. Last night I slept fairly well and today the pain is almost gone
