    After being “a really amazing candidate, ɓut we just had this other person with x” for way too many jobs, I’ve finally been offered a job that’s interesting, uses some of my skills, is 20 minutes from home, and is good money. Fucking finally.

      Are we you the song about blowjobs? The song about coming? Or the song about saunas?

      Wild that this is a perfectly valid sentence this year! I am 100% sauna, but I intentionally don’t listen to too many songs before hand so may be surprised on the night.

    The expensive maintenance thing the previous owner of my van was putting off turned out to be a timing belt. So my plans to maybe go to the new place tomorrow have been put off to allow time for the belt to be replaced. Otherwise all looks as expected for a six year old van, so that’s good.

    Mr Woof’s new travel crate has been put together and I have his sheepskin blanket folded in the bottom. He should be quite cosy there once he gets used to the idea of being confined - I just have to work out the best way of strapping it down in the back of the van.
