Contemplations

Woo, I'm averaging one post every two weeks. Fantastic. Of course, virtually nobody knows I even have this thing, so nobody's likely to be counting; right?

I can't say that I have much to add anyway, life is trudging along as usual. I've been putting in for teaching jobs, which is a pretty enormous step, and I'm actually kind of excited by the prospect of going somewhere remote. Maybe it's the whole sensation of starting afresh, this time on my own. There are times when I fret about my age and worry that I'm getting too old to consider having a family, but then I realise I'm not THAT old. I'm actually enjoying being single now that I have the means to support myself and live a little. For the first time in a long time, I'm not actually preoccupied with finding someone and, as a result, my whole crush with the internet has faded. That's not to say I would rule out meeting Aussie guys online, but I'm not travelling overseas again. I proved to myself that I'm a Tasmanian girl through and through and, at the very least, I will always want to live close enough to my family to see them fairly regularly.

Theatre is going quite well, though it's the usual panic stations now that we have about three weeks left and we're still there to 11pm. There's another rehearsal tonight, so hopefully things will run a lot smoother. I'll be glad when it's over though, I can't wait for the Christmas holidays because I really feel like I need a recharge. I think I'm going to head to the doctor soon for a checkup, and make sure this feeling tired is just a side-effect of being bored at work all day and then having late nights. Never hurts to check! I'm feeling pretty good otherwise, lost a bit of weight and the new eating regime seems to be okay. I don't think I'll ever been entirely cured of snacking, but at least I don't spend so much time thinking about food!
