General Update
I keep meaning to write something because so much has happened since I last wrote anything. Because of that you get the short version.
After nine weeks in hotels and six of those weeks being completely homeless I've finally found somewhere to live. I've got a flat in Brighton and a very large thanks go out to Adelle for helping sort out just about everything. The flat is reasonably OK, in that it's convenient for everything. The drunks out the front, the nightclub out the back, the lack of furniture and the current lack of heating are kind of annoying, though. I might not mind about the boiler dying again but it's the second time it's happened in the couple of months I've lived here and I currently have an absolute stonker of a cold which isn't helped by four days of cold showers.
The job I moved here for is steadily going down hill. My boss was fired a couple of weeks ago and his replacement is hell-bent on outsourcing all of the development work. I'm pretty sure my job will be either redundant or as good as redundant in six months time. I'm not sure whether to start looking for a job now or to hang out for possible redundancy. I haven't even really made any friends in the company either. I think it's the large corporation style office, there's limited socialising and the people I directly work with are either eeyores or tiggers and I'm not interested in hanging around with either.
The weird thing is, despite a long list of woes, I'm actually OK.
