waitingman: (Debtor's Prison)
And so my sentence at Debtor's Prison #2 looks set to be commuted to more soul-crushing hours at the local Centrelink Office, due to its not-entirely-unexpected undercrowding & underfunding ~ or more simply ~ the place can't afford to keep me any more & since the Warden Manager & I haven't really seen eye-to-eye since Day One, she has (most likely gleefully) arranged for my release in a fortnight's time from the shackles of Appliance Retail barely six months into my sentence tenure.

As an unreformed & as-yet-uncrushed optimist, I choose to see this as a blessing in disguise. Ask me again in two weeks when none of the jobs I've applied for have even bothered to get back to me...

On the plus side, the refinancing has borne fruit in the form of a new bed for us & the totally indulgent purchase of new albums by Peter Gabriel & Sting... How very 'Adult-Contemporary' of me!!

But just to show I'm down with this new-fangled technology, I also downloaded the new Massive Attack album tonight & it's soundtracking this post rather nicely.

Enough... time to construct some semblance of dinner from the cupboard contents.
