Time is running out

It is really.

It’s three days till Christmas – and we only decided yesterday what we’re going to do. Talking about Christmas though…I braved Cavendish Square on Saturday afternoon. Oh. My. God. Never again will I do that. That experience just made me hate crowds just a little bit more. Thankfully I got all the Christmas presents that I needed and I don’t have to go near a mall until someone important has a birthday.

It’s ten days till 2009. Finally. I am SO over this year. Then again…

It had to have been my worst year to date…but…on the flip side that bad stuff did make me do stuff that I otherwise wouldn’t have done so maybe that makes it count as a good year…screw it. Bury it.

Next year looks so much more promising anyway. I have a new position at work to look forward to (and to be terrified of) – hello, marketing manager over here (you can laugh. I certainly did). Technically my boss knows I don’t know what the hell I’m doing but he has some kind of weird faith in my intelligence.

We’re also going to get our acts together and get the ball rolling on going overseas. I know, I’ve said it before, but we’re going to do it. Anyway, considering that the decision is veering towards Canada at the moment, it’ll only take like five years to sort out. This also may mean that we’ll throw in a quicky marriage at some point. Yeah, don’t get excited…it’s not like I’ll be taking the Boyf’s surname or anything – I’m not exactly eager to have an exceptionally Afrikaans surname attached to me. It’s all about practicality.

Oh yeah and we might have a kid.

I pushed it too far there didn’t I?

Yeah. Nope, we’re still trying to avoid that disaster with every breath of the day – I may have grown up a bit more over the past year but I’m still opposed to the whole breeding concept.

And now I’m going to go and enjoy my holiday…for an hour or so until my mother rocks up and wants to venture out into the world and “do stuff”. I really think it’s going to end up being a painful day of note.

Now if you were paying attention you would notice that this post was brought to you by Muse – a band I never cared for before (because it made me want to slit my wrists) but because of a shift that occurred, I suddenly have more time for them.

    Gosh. So many plans. So little time. And a marriage of convenience. Gosh. And a kid. Gosh. ARGH!

    P.S. Re: Muse. Well done – welcome to the 21st Century. Sorry… we kinda started without you a bit.

    And what did you get me?

    6k – Any marriage I go in to is going to be one of convenience. I’m not a big fan of the concept otherwise.

    I got you…sweet bugger all. Because you already got a super sweet phone.
