    So today I handed in my notice at work after receiving written confirmation of a job offer! I'm pretty happy now, but in the run up to telling my boss, I had never felt nerves like it... Apart from when I came out to my parents.

    Why is being an adult so hard?!

    I guess maybe it is difficult telling people stuff you think they might not want to hear?

    Im going to be doing that in about 10 months after 24 years here now.
    I think I will actually enjoy it. Im taking 6 months off to travel, then Im breaking ground for a recovery project for people addicted to drugs.
    I expect to die a broke but satisfied old man. what more can one ask for out of life.

    I used to work at a pub, making starters and desserts, and I eventually quit when I found a job at Sainsbury's that paid well and had more secure hours. I felt kind of bad because the person I worked for is a good friend of my mum's and he made it easy for me to get it - but it was utter shite.

    Took me about a month to get my P45 though. I was pretty pissed about that.
