Don't worry be happy

I'm realising that this blog is becoming a bit of a moan fest. Things are generally a bit up in the air at the moment. I thought things were all good with my boss. I told her on Friday that I wouldn't take the new contract and she was really good about it and she said that she would organise a redundancy package. I had expected her to yell or fight me on it. Today I thought it best to remind her that I need 2 weeks written notice so I sent her an email. She rang me before saying that she needs me to put in a resignation and I explained several times that I wasn't going on to the new contract, I am available to work under my current contract but if she's not prepared to give me any work then she has to make the position redundant and that she has to give me 2 weeks written notice as according to my contract. She says that she's not backing down on it and that she was going to read my contract and ring me back, well I haven't heard from her. I'm not backing down on this and I don't want it to get nasty but she can't make me resign but also I need my notice as I am applying for other jobs and need to tell potential employers when I am available.

So end of moaning onto different emotions:

I have a job interview tomorrow so I am a) nervous - it has been about 9 years since I interviewed for a job that I didn't get but b) I am surprised because I have only put out 9 CVs and have received no rejection letters yet. I didn't even think I would be considered for this job so I am quite proud although mostly nervous.

I am nervous about playing bass at Faith Festival this weekend but I am also (I don't know what word I am looking for - not excited, something else) about stepping outside my comfort zone in doing something I love even if it is in front of lots of people. I can be a rock star.

I am enjoying re-reading Harry Potter, just wish I had more time.

I am surprised that my driving instructor classified me as an 'overconfident driver' at defensive driving last night. I totally would have thought I was an anxious driver.

I am extremely happy that I have a hair appointment with Amber tonight and she hasn't gone to Spain yet.

I had the lovely surprise of running into my old friend Jen in Te Tumu today, she has been in Australia but was in Dunedin today for a job interview. I hope she gets the job and moves back to Dunedin.

I am getting nervous/excited about Sally's upcoming hen's party/wedding.

I can't wait for Olivia to come back from Auckland.

I had a great night at The Scurvy Dogs on Saturday night. I want to be a pirate.
