As of Friday the Thirteenth, I'm officially Bummed.
That's right, my boss picked Friday the Thirteenth to officially announce that I was out the door, out on my bum, de-employed. The light at the end of the tunnel was I had a few minutes to clean out my desk and I "could give myself an early mark if I wanted to".

Longer lasting loves have been sustained with orange juice, chocolate and the colours green and purple. She has been criticised at length and often for her verbosity and the frequency of her opinions. She is still constructing her official 300, 000 word response to her critics.
