Tired but amazingly happy...

This week has been like sitting on a rollercoaster for eight days. Monday morning was pretty hectic as we packed up the car and left. I was quite sad to be leaving the Uni, especially as I can't find any Passoa at home, but I felt settled as soon as I arrived home. That was a strange feeling. I't usually takes me at least a week to get used to being in a home environment, but this time I didn't feel any unease.

One bad thing (and when I say bad a mean very bad) was that I started work the day after I got back. That wasn't the most fun thing in the world, but I'm coping. It isn't too bad at the moment, and I've been blessed with some very nice customers. I served this fantastic gentleman who claimed that I sounded 'far too intellectual' to be working in a supermarket and asked me which University I was at. It always makes standing behind a checkout for hours on end that little bit better. Some of the staff are being as intolerable as ever. I'm just thankful that I'm working the same shifts as Mum and that my supervisors like me. Again, it makes life that little bit easier.

Bloodstock Open Air was amazing. It was very chilly, but seeing as we had no shower facilities it was probably for the best. I wouldn't have wanted to be that smelly person on the train that makes people feel sick. Myself and The Hair met some fantastic new people via Nudger (he already has an alias, so that's easy) and Cave Man (Enigma's bearded manfriend), so that was rather jolly. I do like to meet strange new people. There was this very amusing German band called Edguy, probably my favourite band of the festival. They were very good showmen, and I would recommend them! Now I just have Nine Inch Nails, Thirteenth Day and Bloodstock 2005 to look forward to! Nudger has helped organise the line up for Thirteenth Day and he promises that it will be a good show. If it's not I can always stalk him until he gives me my money back. Moi? Evil? Surely you jest...

And now to the reason why I am deliriously happy this evening. I received an email from begoths relating to my entry to their Drawing Blood art competition, saying that I came so close to winning third prize that they were going to give me a prize anyway. I've asked for a regular Serpentina Maria Sangria, seeing as I only have the variant and I don't want to take her out of the box. The total now goes up to 55 and I have won one of the last dolls I need. Yay for me! BEGoths are the most fantastic company in the history of the world, and I love the guys that work there so much!
