ladies and gentlemen... as of yesterday 5pm i have FINALLY joined the ranks of the unemployed!! 5 years of horrible UK-based office slog has finally paid off and now there is money in the bank and a P45 on the shelf next to me and the world is my lobster (don't care much for oysters).
PRAISE THE LORD!!!
it's all coming together. timo has more or less just arrived in hanoi (no real idea of his plans for the next two weeks but imagine after 24 hours crammed into a small japanese airport they probably involve sleeping and a large dose of leg stretching in the fresh air), the one way ticket is booked, the travel insurance arranged, the mobile cancelled (with a certain amount of trauma it must be said - the lady at O2 took real offence for some reason at the idea that i planned to travel sans phone and told me i was thoroughly irresponsible and putting myself at needless risk. didn't know o2 offered a nagging fishwife service - thought had pressed 2 for cancellations, but there you go), the chiropractor booked, the rucsac fitted, the bank informed, the party planned and the... oh shit have forgotten to buy hair dye. must do that in a sec.
recovering my bed from some leaving-type drinks last night. it's frightening how much booze this particular 60 kilo girl can fit in and not fall down. good thing won't be able to afford much beer soon - god only knows what sort of state the liver is in after 15 years of abuse. anyway it was fun and my head is still on my shoulders and won't be sitting at any desks for a good few months so life is good and at this time on sunday 13 april (2 weeks and one day for the purposes of countdown) shall be on a plane flying to hong kong and from thence to hanoi to have an adventure!!
woo woo - promise to keep you posted xx
