Of Further Foolishness January 28, 2008

Posted by Jen in : Journal , 24 comments

Ooh, ‘eck. Despite my crazed ramblings about pyjamas and other pitiful demonstrations of alleged intelligence, I have a second interview this afternoon. I have been contemplating my interview homework and have Had Some Ideas. Unfortunately, most of the ideas occurred during the night and now my brain is seizing up and my eyes have disappeared inside my head.

It has occurred to me that my brain thinks it is living on Ozzie time. During the day, in Great British time, I can talk only of pyjamas. At night, I become a ruddy genius. This is rather a drawback.

As luck would have it, my lack of sleep is not making me drowsy. I am worryingly perky. This has nothing to do with the fact that I have rather gormlessly run out of oil and have no heating. Becoming an Eskimo is not a career choice I’m considering. Endless warming tea-drinking is quite nice. However, its subsequent necessary wee-based activity is most tricky when wearing seventeen layers of clothes. Brrrrrrrr.

(Dear Prospective New Boss,

I promise that I will not say this sort of thing out loud, with my mouth, if I am in your employ. I am really quite normal in every way. Honest.)

When I am not too busy Having Ideas and being an Eskimo, I may have to consider a way of writing a blog of nonsense that is not linked to the being-sensible-most-of-the-time real me. Sigh.
