Its all over. Tomorrow I start not one but two jobs. (Neither of which are in TV, Im still working on that.)
Im back in the office environment plus I have to stand up in front of 60 people tomorrow night and give a lecture.
Man, what if Ive forgotten how to do it? Im nervous. Actually, thats not true...Im terrified!

Life is beautiful
What a week. I cant believe that this day a week ago I sat on the couch and cried all day long about losing a job that I didnt much like in the first place.
Today I am in a slightly different place.
I LOVE BEING GAINFULLY UNEMPLOYED!!!
It rocks. I get paid to get out of bed at 10 am, I get paid to go for lunch with my friends, I get paid for going for a walk in the sun and listening to music, I get paid for sitting in a coffee shop window and watching the world go by, I get paid for watching Fern and Phillip (this has been a dream of mine for a loooong time).
I am living the life that I have always wanted.
Now I just have to figure out a way of making it continue...

I've lost my job!
Yesterday I was escorted from the premises of a broadband company that I had worked for for a year and a half. Im 32 years of age and have never been unemployed before bar a stint as an actress in my youth. That lasted about three days until I became a true actress and got a job as a waitress.
Im determind to do a few things with my free time which I have listed in no particular order.
1. Hide my unemployment from my mother – she still hasn’t gotten over the ‘actress’ phase and I think that the story of my being manhandled out of an office would tip her over the edge altogether.
2. Lose two stone. Ive been blaming my fat ass on the office lifestyle. I cant hide my blatent disregard for the food pyramid behind the office excuse any longer. Mars bars are not a food group – I will accept and embrace this fact.
3. Get a job as a presenter. On the telly. Like that Fern Britton wan. I could talk at length about things that Im not afraid that my mother will find out about. Obviously the sacking wouldn’t be a topic I would cover. She’d ring in on the comment line to berate me and tell me that my granny would be ashamed and ask me would I pick up a packet of marrofat peas for the dinner.
4. Stop buying crap that I don’t need from JML. Im now broke and seriously, how many impliments does one need to chop veg?
5. Not get into the habit of getting up at three in the afternoon. Im going to be super-productive-girl and get up at a normal hour and get things done like those super productive people who get up at a normal hour and get things done.
6. Wean myself off my ‘terrible TV’ addiction. Most notable being Americas next top model and Most Haunted. LOVE them both. Bring back Derek Acorah’s all I can say. Scouse flavoured ghosts are the best.
I'm scared :(
