Not a Blog

This page does NOT contain any photos of domestic animals. Nor will you find excessive self-indulgence (other than the mere fact of writing about myself extensively). So it can't be a blog then.

Name:
Location: Sheffield

Being a well-written account of an English guy and his Argentinean girlfriend, as they adjust to life in the UK and try to construct some kind of meaningful existence. Hopefully full of humour and not just another source of woe.

The Alex's Diary

Weight: 10st (holding steady for several weeks despite eating like a pig. Think it's a symptom of Reiter's Syndrome) Units of alcohol: 0 (can't afford it. Unemployed.) Cigarettes: 0 (although maybe a sneaky rolly later on once Beatriz has gone to bed.)

Have been reading Beatriz's copy of Bridget Jones's Diary. Worrying that this may make me a Gay, even though I am really a Manly Man (albeit a Manly Man currently wearing sky-blue t-shirt with butterflies and flowers on it).

Job interview tomorrow. Hurrah! With company that aims to get long-term unemployed back into work. Sounds v inspiring, but then remembered the character of Pauline from League of Gentlemen, and began to worry that I may turn into her. Still, pay's not bad, and is ideal match for my skills, so quite confident.

Remember to draw the happy, prepared employee in the rain. Go knock 'em off their feet. Oh, and it's OK to tell them that your hobbies have nothing to do with your job. You are multifaceted and your hobbies provide an avenue for you to be a well-rounded person. Or something like that. Best of luck!!!

just watch out for Ross, the undercover investigator, and if you see him don't bend over.
