After getting myself all pleased that the first of the month was coming and I’d have some money to pay the rent, the bills (phone/ADSL got disconnected this morning; BT are unreasonable cunts), etc., guess what – I’m exactly as poor as I was yesterday.
Fucking shitty wank arse buggery. I’m owed £300 by a client, over £1700 by an employer, £150 by the council… a veritable fortune, right now. I’ve got more work to do (worth another £600ish) for a client who’ll (thank the cosmos) pay promptly, but I’m going to have to work on it from my office on evenings/weekends because I can’t get internet access there for the time being! It feels immensely frustrating to have over £2750 eternally just “days away”, while, simultaneously, cunty wanky creditors are breathing down my neck. Grr!!!
(takes deep breath)
Right – that rant aside – Aber’s fun and full of snow, between periods of spring sunshine, which is nice (Claire and I were plodging through snow last night, and the hills were caked in it today). I like snow, and it’s particularly fun to get it in March after a snowless winter.
Eep, still no word on that work I mentioned to you before but hopefully it will come through soon. I’ve been very lucky that most of my clients are in the US and Europe where the emphasis seems to be on prompt payment as I’ve never had to wait more than a week for people to pay up. You might be eligible for working tax credits btw which you might want to check out as it will get you a bit of extra income while you set yourself up.
