Time to get paid

I have finally given up on the rock, succumbed to the truth that my fingers are never going to reach the sweets at the bottom of the jar, and have opened another packet instead.

I have come to the decision that I will ring the LTA and ask for some supply work tomorrow. I am feeling particularly bolstered by knowing that I have come to a decision that I cannot yet carry through, it being Sunday, and am equally sure that I will be very unsure of the decision when it comes time to ring tomorrow. Voluntary work seems so alluring I think because there isn't the same level of responsibility when you aren't being paid, your best is your best and it will just have to do. Being paid means that there really is no excuse for providing a substandard service. Having come to this realisation I also know that I cannot hide behind it, there's even less excuse for being a wuss. If there's still no work for me, I can still volunteer, and I can always try Steads again and see if they are in need of an efficient sales assistant!

As I said to you, after painfully dragging myself up the stairs after you wounded me on Saturday, I would suggest a big stick. Preferably not one from the garden (if you do then no thanks, I don't want one). I apologize profusely for saying this to you earlier, next time I will save the breath and type instead. :P

Here's to a virtual world Sophie! You on fanfiction downstairs and I surfing the blogs upstairs... Occasionally we might even manage to talk to one another face to face.
