For the most part things are situation normal. Still job hunting, still doing housework, reading, and ocassionally playing world of warcraft.
No news yet on the bookstore job, still keeping my fingers crossed. Apparently over here when people say oh we'll call you on x day or we'll meet you on x day..they don't really mean that at all! silly people! Its okay though, i'll give it a few more days then i'll put that firmly in the "unsuccessful catagory". Meanwhile i'm still looking for other possibilities. I'm thinking I might have to go back to telemarketing, if only i could find one that wasn't in the CBD and had earlier hours. Its a pain living out in the "suburbs" because it takes so long to travel, but to be honest it takes longer to go by car than by bus if you're going in the city - buses get right of way ALL the time and heaven help you if you're not letting that bus go first...it'll run you over!
So today i'm just relaxing, doing a bit of writing and listening to music. Waiting for the 2nd load of washing to be done so I can hang it out and then i'll be done for the day..YAY! I'm planning on curling up on the couch with a book, or maybe decorating my bedroom - i'm thinking about hanging some of my photography on the walls. Though I need to talk with dad about that, and about what I could use to stick things to the wall.
Last night was quite cute - Jasper was a really good boy during dinner, he didn't beg or anything. So pat gave jasper a smacko's (i swear i just saw his head pop up when i typed that lol..the dog is amazing!). When pat gives him smacko's he makes him do tricks for them, sit/lay down/roll over that kind of thing. Last night he decided to try a new command - stay. He actually obeyed!!! which is shocking, considering it apparently took him 3 years to learn to sit (his old owner told us she had such trouble getting him to listen to her). So we were utterly amazed. He got lots of hugs and "good boy" compliments.
A few days ago dad got a soft toy shaped like an alligator (a joke), anyway we've been playing with him with it - he doesn't like it at all, it scares him. Anyway last night he was curled up on the couch next to me, and i slipped it between his paws while sleeping. Amazingly he stayed there like that, then pat tried to grab it... he started growling and snarling at him! like he does when pat's tickling my feet and jasper doesn't like it (he's my little prince in puppy armor). I nearly fell off the couch I was laughing so much. Jasper even went so far as to give the toy a bath, so cute! I got a couple of pics I just need to put them on the computer.
Well folks, I should go - the washing machine just beeped at me to signal the washing is done so i'd better get to it.
i'll leave you with a few photos of our gorgeous dog, Jasper....
