A Legal Alien

16 December 2005

I quit my job yesterday, all official and stuff. I had my dad fax a letter (stupid international fax rates are a joke!) from his office because I found out that my school was interviewing 2 people today to replace me! I guess my lovely Housemate (who is forever banished to 'Dead to Me' along with a few other people who don't deserve to be named) told everyone at work that I'd left on a one-way ticket. Uh.. someone please tell BA that I won't be flying with them on the 30th on flight 286 because my loser housemate spreads bullshit tales about me. Gee, thanks Asswipe.

So I'm officially unemployed and in 27 days, will not have a work permit to stay in the UK. At the moment, I want as far away from Essex as I can get and that so happens to be California. I want to be back in London, living the life I had a year ago... going to school, hanging out with friends, visiting museums. Things change, time to move on from that, as painful as it is.

The plan.. you, oh internet, are in on the plan.

I'll arrive back on the 31st and hopefully stay with E. Last resort is a hotel or B&B. While DEADTOME is at work, I'll go to the cottage and pack up the last of my stuff. I'll arrange for the relocation company to arrive there as well to pick up my stuff to ship back. Everything electronic will go in my car and back to E's house or to Ash's if he wants it. In the evening, I'll go to school and pack up the rest of my stuff that I left in the office. IT BETTER BE THERE OR HEADS WILL ROLL. And then.. then.. I don't know what then.

I'd like to travel up to Scotland and see friends, the pieces of the country I haven't seen yet. I'd like to go back to Italy, maybe Switzerland. I'm a vagabond now. I'm jobless, homeless because I REFUSE to live with DEADTOME ever again. Spiderman has been kind, that I know of. We'll see how it is when I get to the house.

My plan will probably fail, as did my plot to sneak out of Essex without a word. But that's what makes life more full of drama. Because really, my life doesn't have nearly enough drama.
