Awesome

Sister is goooone! Alright she still has quite a bit of stuff in my house but she's now basically living at Dad's and just popping over to grab more stuff every now and then. This does mean she keeps barging in without knocking as she still has a key and I can't wait for that to be over with but I don't have to live with her anymore! Yay! No more of her hogging the bathroom for hours at a time whilst my bladder's exploding!

She has been borrowing lots of money off me though in order to pay rent at Dad's as she just started a new job and gets paid in arrears, etc etc. You all know the hassle of starting new jobs and not having any money for the first month. Sucks as I really don't have spare money to be giving her but she promised she'd pay us back before rent's due so I'm just crossing my fingers she actually keeps her promise.

The Music Man's coming up on Thursday and although he doesn't have a job up here yet he can do all my housework and has already found a band to play with*, so that's all pretty awesome.

Rambo's still being incredibly awesome and making sure my spoon reserve stays fairly high, but now I feel like I'm taking advantage of that as I've been feeling fairly lazy the last couple of days, despite managing to bathe myself yesterday while he was at work! Yes, that does deserve an exclamation mark, it's an incredibly impressive feat for me that takes nearly half my daily spoons.

So yeah, all in all, things are awesome. Rambo's awesome. The Music Man's awesome. I shall have a vaguely clean house soon. And a wheelchair. And all kinds of other awesome crap in the mail. Benefits suck right now as my ESA's been stopped, so money's not great, but that's definitely outweighed by all the other awesome things and is hopefully fixable once I get my cognitive functions working enough to fix it.

Oh, kind of failing at FFM. Mega-bad wrists last couple days and I didn't want to type any more than I had to so am uhhh...four days behind now. But the 55x55 thing means I'm still about 50 stories ahead, even if I am days behind.





*Catch-It Kebabs, go check 'em out. Awesome ska band. Gonna go see 'em at the Manchester Ska Bar the sunday after The Music Man comes up and they're supporting Streetlight Manifesto** in August!

**Possibly my favourite band ever. I've travelled all across the country to see them on many occasions and it's always worth the crash after.
