I am the bitch of the Fascist Overlords.

Well, I have signed my soul over to Centrelink (Australia's Social Security service) and I am required to find 5 jobs to apply for in... ready?

Three days.

*whimpers and curls up into a ball* I have found one this morning. ONE. Dear Lord above me - this is going to KILL me! *whimpers again* It's not like I'm being picky, there are only *so* many jobs I'm eligible for, ya know? Well, once the working hours start I'm going to call all of the jobsearch agencies that the guy at Centrelink gave me numbers for and have a look there. I really really need to get this money, it's important. Plus Dad is home from work today, he's sick. Poor guy.

In other news, I sent a letter to Autumn about how crappy they've been over at DDFH towards Diebin and Donna. No reply yet. Wonder if she's shared it with her DDFH friends? Hmmm - cue Jeopardy music.

Nancy.

Quiet day on the ranch.

Well, I discovered I actually have TWO days to find five jobs. Today is a public holiday. Greaaat. Now, I am totally freaking out. I had an interesting morning at #theonering.net. My nick there is Periwinkle, named for Frodo's hobbit squeeze in my story. Someone said, "You're Peri the Winkle!"

"No, I'm not, I'm the colour and the flower."

Then they said, "Tolkien wrote a poem, called Peri the Winkle."

... Woah. I did *not* know that. Okay, it could be coincidence. My character goes by the name of "Perry" most of the time in the story anyways.

"Oh hang on," the person says, "He spelt it 'Perry'."

Knock me over with a feather. That is seriously freaky. I wrote the story because the name 'Periwinkle' hit me first. *shudders*. How cool.

Not many emails today. It's been very quiet, but I got to talk to Azina which makes me very happy. I made the kids pancakes and eggs for breakfast. Mmmm, nice breakky. Now it's time for second breakfast... oh damn. It can't be second breakfast, it's 1pm. Christ, hobbits would have to be continually eating to fit all those meals in!

Anyways. I think Periwinkle is Frodo's true love. Tolkien mojo'd so.

Hugs,
Nancy.
