well, house floors are pretty now.
furniture being returned to living spaces. at least they are over this shitty, hot and wet weekend.
most of this week i've been down at my parents' place. helping them get ready to move to perth, western australia.
i'll be acquiring a large selection of their furniture for a cash payment. what doesn't fit here will probably have to go into storage somewhere.
i have started up my job applications thing again. one done and sent, two started - one of which is almost done. i bloody hope i get a job soon. working takes less effort, and is more satisfying, than endless job applications.
i've passed the 800 mark now. probably more, actually, since we're talking about 4 years here. about 200 of those have been the full deal, "response to person specification" blah de blah. i now have a large collection of previous responses to cut 'n' paste from - though sometimes it takes longer to find a prototype than to type things out form scratch.
if i do get the job i've just applied for, i'll be doing something i do well - have done lots of - and learning a few things as well. and the remuneration will help a lot. be able to pay of some really annoying debts, and begin to look to next year with some confidence instead of clawing my way from financial year to financial year.
i so want out of this endless subsistence existence.

but 0/800 is pretty poor ... i've never won a job by application or interview. everything i've done to date has been through informal channels ...
