squished kidney..

my somewhat prolonged absence (for those of you who were wondering, because i know you are many..) has been the result of some frantic househunting up north..happily i was very successful, and now have a nice nice house with a nice nice room and four nice nice girls.

i am, however, more than a bit teed off today (is that how you spell teed? tead? tee'd? tiiid?) as i discovered that, being the only part time student in a house full of full time students, would mean that i was liable for the entire council tax on the house, and not just a fraction as i had previously thought..now, i know this may have been a bit naive of me, thinking that the government might give those who are studying part time in order to be able to afford to live and do the course a bit of a break..but there you go. the outcome of all this is that i have had to swap to a full time MA, because i can't pay the whole council tax for the house on top of everything else..

bum.

plus, these high waisted trousers, while be very nice to look at, are squishing all my insides together and making my kidneys hurt.
