Thanks to Kitty, I’ve hopped onto the Vox-wagon. (Yeah, no shite, that was corny.)
Hopefully, I’ll be able to keep my crafty and dolly posts to a dedicated blog there from now on. And from what I’ve heard – it beats Livejournal hands down. Can’t be bad, hey?
My entry titles are getting more and more vivid, aren’t they? *chuckle*
Going out tonight – and I don’t really want to. :S Meeting up for coffee with an old mate from architecture days (that’s more of a buddy of James’ than mine), and hopefully, conversation won’t dry up before the order’s arrived.
Been out today with the future mom-in-law while she runs her errands, and we did stop by the local Salvos just for a look-see – yes, I was looking for abandoned Kenner Blythes, but I do that anyway everytime I go into a store that looks like it has potential. Ended up with 2 retro/kitsch dessert bowls for $1.20, and picked up a Pierre Cardin oxford shirt for James for $3.50. Bargain!
Have an interview on Monday, so at least it’s not all stagnent on the job front either. Yay me!

I’ve finally gotten off my arse and uploaded some photos I’ve taken over the week and today onto Flickr. Wahey!
(Yeah, I know – this is a redundant post.
)
My paltry internet endeavours (meaning my Flickr, blog and the forums I used to visit almost obsessively every day) haven’t really gotten much updates lately; and I’m going to blame that on the job hunting, and the many many times I’ve got to slap my hands away from my overly sensitive face that thankfully, has now stopped itching and does not resemble an overly ripe tomato. *phew*
A couple of nice jobs have come onto the market, and I’m hoping I’ll land one of them – so far, I’ve been instructed to do silly problem-solving/critical thinking online tests for the job selection criteria, which I’m chuffed to say I scored in the 96 percentile range. I might have to frame up the results page because I’m lame and sad that way. That, and I’ve also found out that apparently, my top preference in work categories is in Administration, followed by Sales. WHO KNEW?! The Creative field came third; damn it. All these years, I thought I was actually in the right course by doing architecture.
Have been doing some sewing lately too: so far in a week, I’ve made two new dolly dresses and some stockings. Other than that, no creative endeavours at all. No photos, no craft, no arty farting around. I miss the dolly gang heaps – mainly because they were my main hanging-out buds in Melbourne (you can tell I’m just the social butterfly, no?). ALTHOUGH, my friday night is going to look a little less sad tomorrow because I’m going for the annual mid-year architecture bash and catching up with the Newcastle crew.
Now I’m just hoping I’ll get pissed enough to be able to sleep through a certain someone’s snores during the night. Hur hur.
