The end of Day One

Recruiters signed to: 0
TV programs watched: 2 (It was Mad Men so it was basically research)

Ok so today was a little bit slow. I had to drive my parents car back down to South London and I may have shuffled my feet on the way back up. It is all about easing yourself in though. I managed to edit my CV, or at least change everything to the past tense (quite depressing in itself) and then watched enough Mad Men to learn that you can move from being a receptionist to a copy writer in a matter of weeks, oysters and martinis probably aren't the best combination before a pitch, and that I strongly needed a drink. And a cigarette. And a 1950's wardrobe.

I don't have a table let alone a desk in my house so I have set up camp at the picnic table out in our "back yard". I am only able to do this past six pm when the sun doesn't cause glare on my laptop screen, and I am currently listening to the soothing tune of my neighbor clipping her toe nails whilst singing Breakfast at Tiffany's by Deep Blue Something like a cat with it's foot trapped in a blender.

For now I am going to open up my CV again, very slowly, and hope that my housemates come home before I am actually forced to do any real thinking.
