It's a Saturday morning and I should be running around trying to clear up at least one layer of crap before my mother visits this afternoon, but I'm not. I'm reading blogs. Well, you can't say I'm not consistent when it comes to procrastination.

My week was a tad stressful. Keeping a written record like this is interesting because it really does bring to the fore the cycles that you repeat. Like going insanely broke waiting for cheques that do not arrive. I have my mailman's schedule memorised. He passes the house across the street from me between 1.45 and 2.00. I know this because I waited for him on Tuesday, with anticipation and hope, on Wednesday with hope and a slightly unsettled feeling in my tummy, on Thursday, with growing despair as I saw my looming eviction from my home and wondered how was I going to get internet access when I was living out of a trolley, and on Friday, when he was running an hour late, and the cheque finally turned up. YAY. Now I just have to wait for it to clear (Wednesday) and then I can pay all the people who have been patiently waiting for their bills to be paid. Double YAY.

And I can buy the nylon string guitar that my teacher thinks would be a good idea as I seem to be heading towards more classical pieces, and it will be much easier for me with one (and of course I hate the idea of another guitar... of course I don't!! Gadget girl, that is me).

Ummmm what else has been happening. Work has been sporadic. Lots of last minute cancellations. I think next week could turn into a hell week, as all those postponements are going to have to happen soon. Not much play, due to broke-ed-ness.

Oh, my sister and I are taking my mother out tonight for a surprise (which is why I SHOULD be cleaning, why she is visiting). We are taking her to see Nine Inch Nails. That is going to be fun!

Alright, enough putting off the inevitable. Must....clean...before...going...to...lesson. Muuuuuuust...cleeeeeeeeean.

Bleh.

More news soon.
