Farewell to Fulham

Last night I got home to be greeted by a very trolleyed Onion Ring. Why is this newsworthy, you may ask? She had been out on it since 12.00 as she was told yesterday that she doesn't have a job to go back to on Monday. Clearly I feel bad for the girl but my first thoughts were that her rent was due on Tuesday. How is she going to be paying this from now on? I totally count on that money each fortnight as it gets me through till my pay day and keeps all the bills at bay (sort of).

I've assured her that she'll have a job, even if it's not her dream job, by Wednesday. Secretly I fear her fragrance of stale chardonnay and massively inflated attitude issues may hinder this time frame somewhat. Secretly I'm very very afraid that she's going to have an excuse on Tuesday and each following Tuesday about why she can't give me her rent. Luckily I do have someone to step in at any given moment. One of my fave ex-housemates that is having problems finding a new place in Maida Vale and that may jet off to Milan to live, at any rate, over the coming months.

Speaking of CJ (said, ex-h/m), I am scheduled to meet her at Fulham tube station with some other friends at 8.30 this evening. We were to be having a super cheapie light dinner and then going for a few drinks in a venue she's had a laugh at before. I fear I'm going to have to be sensible and bail. I just can't justify going out and living it up when I'm facing the prospect of financial ruin at the hands of the Onion Ring. Not only is this making me unhappy as I would love to go out and interact with human beings in a social setting, it also means I have an evening trapped in the flat with the Onion Ring. Last night she managed to have us sleeping with our front door unlocked during one of her drunken cigarette breaks. Brilliant.

Luckily I pressed the button and the flat is officially up for sale as of today. Please someone buy it from me rather quickly? It's quite a steal. I've even found the perfect flat for me to move to that is available for me now!!! How happy would I be having Christmas in a brand new flat all on my own??? Very!!!!
