...and it is with shame i noticed that i havn't blog'd for some time. i really must sort out my landline thing at home... in the warmer months it was all good and well to be outside doing things, smoking fags in the beer gardens and meeting people, but now it is getting colder and darker. The ashtray on the coffee table in front of the tv is over flowing, the one next to my pc is being seriously under used and neglected.
Currently i'm squeezed into the corner of the cafe i occasionally work in surrounded by the busy wednesday market crowd, its quite an experience to be on this side of the till relaxing and drinking crapacinos on a wednesday for once .
For the first time in ages i got to got to spend time slowly ambling about our market. I bought some socks, some vegetables and two star trek dvds (numbers VI and VIII, if you want to know). I've said it before and i'll say it again, knaresborough market is fantastic. It reminds me of the markets in France in that its a genuine market with heritage, no pretentiousness about it... hmm... anyway.
I should really be at home polishing my CV for the job interview which looms ominously on friday... but true to form, i'm looking for anything to distract me from that. Probably the most relevant and promising opprtunity to have landed in my lap for sometime- its all about photography and stuff. No doubt i'll fluff it. I'm already listing reasons why i don't want the job in my head, bracing myself for the inevitable rejection. Even though i do want it. ha! my damn automatic defense mechanisms.
The last few weeks have been a blur really, the cafe has taken up most of my time for various reasons and accidents. There was a couple of dinner parties with good friends (i seem to have entered that demographic that does Dinner Parties...which is nice) Matt's beef wellington was just fab, there was a trip to the cinema with Moo and her friends to see Stardust (not bad), a godson's birthday weekend (Waterworld and NRM in York) and my mother even phoned me....twice! (that'll be 8 months since the last time she actually phoned me), we went for lunch, apparently she's moving on again, she can walk without stick after a successful operation and apparently one of my sisters has been saying unforgivable lies and reinventing herself...
"Life ticks by" would be the main bullet point to take away with you from this particular blog i guess.
hopefully i'll have some pics to upload later this week. but we'll see what happens..

Good luck with the job interview.
I've reached that time in life, or, perhaps, I've just chalked up enough interviews that, I approach them in confident mood.
At the point where the proverbial fat woman does her thing, they - the interviewers - are looking for something. Something with a little confidence and personality. So, just be yourself, show your colours and let fate be your driver.
