Friggin medical students, no word yet, shoutouts, Subby and I will too *~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~* Im sorry. I cant really empathize. My first memory is of seeing Jaspers face in my future; I always knew that he was where my life was headed. *~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~* So it is 3:31pm. I haven't heard back from the interview yesterday. I am a little upset because I really thought I would hear by now. They said they were going to make a quick decision so I assumed I would hear either way today. The longer I am waiting the more I really want the job so I hope someone gets in contact with me soon either way just so I know if I should give up hope or not.
[color=salmon] Work wasn't too bad today. I was just feeling really stiff and out of it until right before I was meant to leave I got a message to bleep one of the doctors. When she called back she was ranting about my medical students. They are ment to be in by 9am for the start of ward rounds and then they work on the ward throughout the day. Apparently attendance has been very poor on the wards and even when the students are there they are not interested. For fucks sake you are going to be a doctor in less then a year how can you act uninterested in what is going on on the ward?! But today she was really fuming because the students showed up at 10 (so an hour late) and then didn't say anything to her but told a registrar at 10:30 that they had to leave to practice a presentation they were giving at 12. They did give a presentation at 12 but they have known about it for nearly 2 weeks and it was no excuse to leave the wards after being there for 30 minutes when you showed up late in the first place. I was fuming, I could have strangled them. Seriously if your heart is not in it then fuck off and find another career. I am not in again until Monday morning so I don't know what is going to happen yet but me and Steve are going to have to have a conference about this. After work I had to stop at my GPs to get my blood pressure monitored. It was 130/88 so I am all clear I don't have to get monitored anymore. I guess it was just the stress of seeing my mother so sick and the holidays that made it sky rocket in December/January. Other then that nothing spectacular planned tonight. Edward and I are going to watch a movie and I think i am going to make some Bruchetta for dinner because I just noticed that our bread is stale. [color=gold]*~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~* You held out your hand, and I took it without stopping to make sense of what I was doing. For the first time in almost a century, I felt hope. [color=coral]*~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~**~* Shoutouts to people who responded a_pretty_girl : Edward's father works offshore in Africa for an oil company. He is there for 3 months at a time and then home for a month. I wouldn't say Arthur is a threat to little children, he didn't want to hurt the kid he just went running at her and she was learning how to ride a bike and I was afraid he would make her fall off of it. megabyte_me : Thanks. Edward called the bank back today because he noticed something on his card that he isn't sure about. When he was on the phone he asked about the drama with the bad credit and they told him it was just a mistake. They are lucky I wasn't the one on the phone because I would have demanded that woman get fired for being a moron. pink_dreams : Thanks rachelinalaska : Thanks. I actually really liked the dresses that Giselle made in Enchanted, if only I could get away with wearing them in real life! Sugar_xxx : Thanks. Yeah the credit card company totally over reacted and if we could live without credit cards I would but unfortunitly you need them for just about everything now, not that you have to use them but they are such a temptation when they are there. Interviews galoure, Bank drama, Pictures I have been really terrible about writing in here lately. My life really just isn't that interesting I am afraid to say. I guess I will give a bit of an update if I can even remember what has happened in the last week. Friday Edward and I fought again about going grocery shopping. Part of his mental illness makes him nervous going out in crowds. However sometimes I think he plays that card just because he is lazy and doesn't want to do. I wouldn't mind going by myself if we had a car but as we don't I can't really carry a weeks worth of shopping home a mile on my own. So I ordered groceries online. I hate doing that, I feel like a cheat doing it but if iI didn't we wouldn't have any food in the house. We eventually made up and watched Enchanted. It was ok but nothing special. Saturday was just spent doing things around the house as far as I can remember. I made some more jewllery but nothing to interesting.Edward's dad is back from Africa for a few weeks so on Sunday we went to the park with his mom, dad, and Arthur. Arthur had a blast, met another dog and stole his ball and tried to knock a little kid off her bike. I swear he is such a terror when my inlaws are around. It really stresses me out going out with them with him because no one else seems to care whether he behaves or not so needless to say I didn't really enjoy myself and was very happy to be home. Monday was a boring day at work and thats about it. Tuesday was another fairly boring day at work. I came home and watched Neighbours, Mr and Mrs Wolf and CSI and then finished reading Pharoah. I took off of work today because I had a job interview at 11:30 for the Secretary of the School of Psychology at the University. The interview seemed to go well. They say they are going to make a quick decision so I hope to hear from them probably before the end of the week. Edward got a letter in the mail inviting him to an interview on March 6th and I got a phone call this afternoon inviting me to an interview at a near by school on Monday afternoon. So the day was going fairly well until all hell broke lose with the bank. Edward's latest credit card statement said that he is £9 over the limit and to pay it immediatly. So he called up to pay it and the woman was giving him a lecture about it and saying that it has been overdrawn for 3 months. No it hasn't, or if it has then they have not told us because I checked the last 3 bills and they were all under the limit. She threatened to give Edward bad credit and stop his card. I feel that this is totally uncalled for since no one approached us about it being over drawn and there is no past history of it being overdrawn and looking at the recent finacial climate I think there will be many more people much more over drawn then £9. So now I am in a really sour mood. I guess I will leave you with some random pictures:  When it was snowing like crazy here  Arthur watching the snow  Jewellery (sorry my camera really had a hard time photographic this)  And more Jewellery   Arthur was pretty bored watching me get ready this morning List of responders a_pretty_girl, f0xy_mama, pink_dreams, Sugar_xxx Interview, what is wrong with the world today?Wednesday wasn't a very important day. I didn't really have any work to actually
do at work so I did more studying for the "Life in the UK" test. The book had 10 practice tests in it so I took them just to see and I passed them all with flying colors. I don't feel like I am ready for the test but I don't think I will ever feel like I am ready. They want you to know so a wide range of information and some of it various from region to region. It is only a 24 question multiple choice test, and if this were a school test I wouldn't even study as I am pretty good at tests. But this test will determine whether I can stay in the UK with my husband or not so I am very nervous about it. I will probably call up tomorrow to book a test. When I got home form work I checked my email and I had one from the University. I have been asked to come in for a job interview next Wednesday morning. The job is for a secretary in the school of Psychology. I believe it is fulltime. I totally forgot about this job and don't even have the job description so hopefully they can send me one so I am not going in there blindly. It sucks because it is at 11:30 am so I can't really go into work on Wednesday so now I have today, next Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday to make up the 5 hours of Wednesday unless I want to work this Friday or next Friday which I really don't want to. Although if I get this full time job I should get used to working on Friday. Eh we will see how I feel. Today again, nothing exciting. I have again have no real work to do at work. So since my life is so boring I am going to fill my entry with a bit of a rant I guess. I don't know how many of you have heard about the 13 year old boy in England who became a father. I am absolutely appauled at this whole story. A 13 year old just shouldn't be able to have children. The mother isn't much better at 15. I remember back to being 13 and even 15 and sex was just not even part of my life. I mean I hit puberty at 10 so that wasn't even the issue. Life just seemed much more innocent when I was that young. Yes there were some people my age having sex but I think the majority of us (at least my close circle) weren't concerned with it. I mean yes we had crushes on boys and whatnot but it was just different. Even just looking back at the way we dressed compaired to the way kids that age dress now is a mile apart. We were all pretty much completely covered up and in baggy clothes, boys didn't find us any less attractive and we certainly didn't have to have our boobs and! ass on view for someone to notice us. This whole story gets sadder when it has now emerged that 2 other boys have come forward claiming they slept with the mother of the baby around the same time. They are 14 and 16. Apparently this was all with consent of her parents. What parent lets their child whore around at 15? I can understand how scary it can be not knowing what your child is doing and feeling that if you at least know that she is having sex you can prepare yourself for consecences but for fucks sake if you are going to be like that at least tell your child about contraception. Part of me feels like all members involved are in this for the media and I feel terrible for that little baby because she is going to have a horrible life. Her parents are not fit to look after her and her grandparents aren't either as they obviously couldn't even look after their own children properly. It is just sad. List of responders a_pretty_girl, megabyte_me, pink_dreams, rachelinalaska, Sugar_xxx Sneek peek of Spring, Edward saw the OH Dr today, Mr and Mrs Wolf Today was warm and sunny. I couldn't believe it. I took Arthur out before I went to work and I was hot in my winter jacket. I was concidering not wearing it and wearing a fleece or something lighter but then I was afraid that the temperature would drop and I would be freezing. Could Spring really be on its way? Please Please Please! Everyone at work was talking about holidays and sunny locations. I want to go somewhere sunny! I want to go back to the Caribbean or to Florida or something. Edward went to the Occupational Heath doctor this afternoon. She doesn't see any reason why Edward can't go back to work. She doesn't understand why his GP keeps writing him off so she is writing to his GP and his line manager to try and get him back to work. So that is great news. I am currently watching a documentary called Mr and Mrs Wolf. It is about this man who has totally integrated himself into a pack of wolves. Now he is trying to introduce his girlfriend into the pack as well. It really amazes me. I find animals like wolves really facinating. And in many ways I wish I could get that close to wild animals. It is amazing their pack mentality and how much like humans they really are or I suppose how like them we are. In many ways I think I have gone down the wrong path in life, the wrong calling. Although I love teaching teenagers before that I wanted to be a vet and there is still part of me that would like to work closely with animals, but more hands on then a vet.

Yay, I can actually enjoy your Twilight layouts now, since I just saw the movie and loved it lol! Good luck with all the interviews! I can't believe some credit card people..I always used to go over my limit when I was in school and I called them to ask if they could raise my limit instead and they said no cuz it was a student credit card, but that since I made the monthly payments still I had great credit. Weird! Your neighbourhood looks so cute! I like the jewellery! Arthur is adorable! :)
I thought Enchanted was so cute! I liked it. I also really like your jewelry! What a precious dog! Good luck w/ the interview! :-)
