The Eternal Dilemma
2:47 PM, Wednesday, 18 April, 2007
For a year I was a volunteer. This wasn't as glamorous as it sounds - I was working like a normal working person, but only earning an allowance. A good allowance, but an allowance nonetheless. Which just doesn't sound as fun, or as adult.
Upon my arrival in Melbourne, the lovely Yehia took it upon himself to provide SugarDaddy services. Whist this was good, it meant that I didn't have access to funds for important things, on a whim. Eventually I found myself saying,
"I need lovely shoes, henceforthwith I must work in order to have money, in order to buy said shoes."
Following this startling philosophical insight, I sat for a moment. Then I called my Old Work and said "You want me back?" They peered at me cautiously and replied, "Why, certainly."
And so it began (again). I am now working 2 days every week so that I don't tire myself out too much, and so that I have time to make a different outfit for every hour of the wedding. I am working for my Old Work, which has once again become my Work. Working with Angry Teenagers. Guess what I'm doing?
Why, what I always do. Talking about sex.

Why, I wouldn't expect any less of you, my dear charlie-girl.
Two days a week is a perfectly reasonable workload - just right for one pair of shoes per week. At least.

hello lady
i bet the shoes are just lurvely.
guess what - while i was in india amanda moved to sydney so i still have those purple 20t UNBELIEVABLE just-made-for-dancing-feet shoes - will pass on to miss h at some stage.
anyhew - will be nice to buy NEW pairs of shoes for a change i am so sure ... i need NEW shoes too ... so will be coming down and pur-chasing ... which means (by katia's maths) that i will need to be working at least 5 days a week because i will need to replace almost ALL of my shoes and in a hurry.
to new shoes and melbourne.

No shoes yet, ladies. Must find space in thumbnail-sized-apartment for current collection before I buy any more, says Yehia!
