the weekend of 'blah'.

one of those weekends, you know?

we couldn't pinpoint exactly what it is but we couldn't be bothered to get out and do anything extra this weekend. although i did go on my weekend walks to nowhere (aka let's walk around aimlessly), i didn't take more than 4 photos (2 of which i've posted in this entry). the internet connection kept timing out on me whenever i managed to log in, so i didn't do anything constructive here again this weekend. things aren't as bad as they sound though, so i shouldn't be a poopy pants about it all

i think one thing i'm getting 'depressed' about is work. i really just feel like this is it - that after this year i want to do something different. after all, it's been 4 years at the same job - enough to put down as a great experience and enough to drive me insane (working from home does have its downsides, amongst other things.) let me know your advice?

one thing i did do on the weekend, was replace my stupid (mobile) phone. for years it's been acting up but the new deal at orange made me get off my ass and do something about it. (it's nice to make a phone call or send a text message and not have the battery drain out on you after 10 seconds. it seriously did that and made it hard for me to use it). so anyway, part of the deal was 2 phones on 1 plan - so Regan got his first phone!



it's a great little phone - Regan's favourite part is that he gets to play games on it, haha. i have managed to get a tetris addiction though, a childhood problem that's found it's way back in the form of portable tetris-ing. the best parts though, the free sms and 5 min calls between the two phones (and anyone else who uses the same network) - so it's all cool, and hasn't really changed my monthly bill.

back to the drawing board, hope your weekend was a good one!

Ugh, I hate weekends like that.

Well about changing your job... I say, start looking and researching other possibilities. There is absolutely nothing wrong with change and wanting to do something different with your life.

So yeah, start looking around. And if you already have an idea of what you would like to do next, well, start taking those steps! Nothing's stoping you girl! Just make sure all your decisions are well thought out, and that you always have a safe place to land :) Good luck with whatever you find yourself doing next! I'm sure we'll love it just the same :L :) :) :)

The only job advice I have is to make sure that you've secured one job before quitting one.

But you probably already know that.

I am like you - in search of a new job. Even though I will be leaving to move out of town at the end of the year, I still wanted to try to see if I could get a photo related job before I leave. Anyway, look around... you're going to really despise going to work if you feel like this now.

and i need a new phone! a new plan, really
