Suddenly it moves with such a perfect grace

[fightingthecage]

The parental unit has gone home. NO ROWS! It's an amazing thing. All in all, an actual enjoyable visit. Though she was doing my head in today - third day, it was bound to happen. Especially as we were watching football together and that's always a nightmare. I'm not a commentator on football, as I tend not to be on subjective subjects because it's generally pointless. Whereas mother will chunter her way through it, talking about what the papers say on various players etc - it's a pain in the ass because...well, there's only so many times you can hear the newspaper's opinions dressed up as her own. Whatever.

Anyway, Housemate Jen is back and a few very enjoyable hours were spent hearing about her holiday and catching up with things. Annnnd I have a job interview tomorrow so that is of the good. :)

Have a meme, because...well, just because.

Ask me any question and I'll answer it - it doesn't matter how personal, political, sexual, controversial, rude or ridiculous it is. You can also ask me something obvious that you don't know or have forgotten (what's your age, what's your job/what are you studying, etc).

Wyhat do you do to pay the bills an d shiny things?

[fightingthecage.livejournal.com]

I don't get any shiny things at the moment. And the bills generally only get paid when I can beg the cash off my mother, which is why I'm hoping I get this damn job tomorrow.

*facepalms*`sorry... lemme rephrase that.. so what is your trade, int he senese of what sort ogf a jhob is it? I am assuming retail?

*hugs*

[fightingthecage.livejournal.com]

Ah, I see. I don't have a 'trade' per say, I've done heaps of different things. This one is in a hotel kitchen, which is the sort of work I started off doing when I was a kid. But I've worked in sales, management, retail, factory, warehouses - I get bored easily. The longest I've ever kept one single job is nine months.

Jack-of-all-trades, I see :D

[fightingthecage.livejournal.com]

That's me. Jack of all trades and Master of none. But it keeps life interesting, if edgy at times.

Something really, really obvious...

How old are you? I can't tell.

[fightingthecage.livejournal.com]

*snicker* I love it when people can't tell. And everyone always thinks I'm younger than I am, it makes me laugh. I turned 27 in March.

[ashen_key]

Well, everyone always thinks I'm OLDER, so my sense of age is skewed. But, cool.

[fightingthecage.livejournal.com]

Meh. I would say age is irrelevant, but it's not really.

I should be clearer with what I meant - I wasn't implying that I look younger than 27. It's people online that generally think I'm younger, as far as I can tell. Probably because I (purposefully) rarely say anything that requires thought. :D

[ashen_key]

*nods* No, I understood that. I've had a similar (ie opposite) thing, although that was a few years ago now.

Ahaha. I don't know. I had you mentally placed at twenty-two, twenty-three. Not because of that, just because...I don't know, really.

[fightingthecage.livejournal.com]

There are worse ages to be placed as! :)

[ashen_key]

*grins* True. Just curious, what would you have me placed at, if you didn't know? (if you do, that is)

[fightingthecage.livejournal.com]

You're 18 aren't you? I had you down for around that age before I knew.

[ashen_key]

*nods* as of April this year.

I've got a question to bore you to hell! What's your problem with (not) updating *certain* stories? Don't tell me about writer's block, not being interested in it anymore. I want the truth... (rude enough?) :):) No, just curious...

[fightingthecage.livejournal.com]

The problem is that the voices aren't as strong for me anymore, so I don't have the compulsion to write them that I once did. But they'll still get finished. I just have to be in the mood to attempt new chapters.
