Well peeps, I figured you haven’t seen much of me about, and your probably wondering, “what is that crazy fool Mojo up to now?” Actually, you all most likely don’t give a sh*t, and are not in the slightest bit interested in what crazy crap is going on in my life, and want me to stop writing about it. Well, like I give a damn, I’m going to tell you all anyway.

I have been extremely busy and very stressed out over the past few months (no cs to kill stress and help me escape my troubled life) mainly because of debt problems. You see, since I have moved to Glasgow I have been making just enough money to break even every month. This wouldn’t be too bad, but as you are all aware I’m sure, sometimes you need rainy day money for when your gas bill is a lot more than you expected (£300), or some big campaign in your area happens and your car gets towed away (£170), or your flat mate refuses to pay his share of the council tax (£1700), and the debt collectors are the threatening to take you to court and seize your precious little income…oh and the bank want that overdraft back, or want me to take out another loan that I can’t afford to pay back (£2000). So it became disturbingly obvious that I cannot afford to live in Glasgow on my current salary, so as any genus like myself would do, I initiated contingency plan A. About 6 months ago I applied to go back to uni to study computer games technology (1 year masters in software engineering) so that I could move back home and go to uni, saving me from any debt crisis, free rents etc, and moving me closer to my Spaniard (still going very well).

Last Friday, I decided to throw the sh*t into the fan, and tell my boss that later on this week I will be handing in my notice. He was not happy, and kept repeating “that’s really sh*t, that’s a shame” etc. Today we had a chat again. lol, didn't even make me an offer for a raise, just asking when I am planning on leaving. Hahaha. He was actually really cool about it, said they were thinking about ways in which they could retain me. I said I could kick out templates in nice css as a freelancer type thing. He did his yeah yeah, sounds good (blank no chance kinda look). But there is no bad blood which is always good. Talked about leaving doors open and stuff. He said it’s a shame to lose me.

“If you’re in debt, why are you quitting your only source of income?” I hear your minds boggle. Well, that’s where contingency plan B comes into action. I have already been approached to work for another company based in Dunfermline as a freelance developer. That way I can work from home and work while being a student. How cool is that?

So really, it’s all worked out good after all the sh*t I have been through. Going back to uni and studying possibly the coolest thing a guy like me could study (except porn star collage I suppose), got a job already lined up, moving closer to my chick, and have the possibility of starting my own company up (as a freelance web developer)…not to mention getting away from those f**king weegee scum bastards that keep breaking into my car. oh, and having more time to play cs.

Yeah so, that’s what’s been going on in my life the past few months I been awol. What you been upto?

*likes the dribbling*

well as for me, Ive just been told I may be getting seconded (hopefully) to work at our service control centre in slough for the next 6 months. Its basically a promotion to the job I have wanted to do since I started here so im happy - just waiting for the all clear from the head of the SCC and im A for away. Other thing is that cos its a secondment, Centrica are gonna pay my travel expenses every day which works out to over £200 a month!

Love life wise i'm obviously still with Linz (as I keep dissapearing every weekend!). Things with us are good except it looks like she's now not going to move down south til the END of sep now (we were originally told mid July so its a tad frustrating as you can imagine!) and theres currently a 50/50 chance shes going to end up working in sh*tty chiswick meaning which of the places she could have ended up, this is the worst for me cos its a c**t to get to.

Apart from that, money wise im completely broke... getting paid more now than Ive ever earned in my life but just like Mojo, I can only JUST break even on my salary with bills, debt rtepayments etc from uni so with paying for extra stuff like travel Im going further into debt every single month...  Doesnt really help that my rent is £434 a month not inc tax or bills of course...

Anyhoo, cant complain, time to go get some food for dinner (raking through the bins downstairs should save me a bob or two...)

That’s no all you do to the contents of the graves ehh Womble? They don’t call you “white wash Womble” for nothing ehh? That’s probably where you got the rag on a stick; you were using a skeleton arm as jerk off utensil (which inspired your rag on a stick). I have spies watching you!!!!!!!

Bored again….

Incidentally, I met that dude who wants me to freelance for him today (took personal time off work to do it too) and it’s all go go go. I am now a freelance web developer (tho I am also in fulltime employment till end of Aug). It all sounds quite interesting. I could potentially earn as much money as I am now, only I can work from home (no tax or bills) or from Egypt (sun, sea, the good life, where what I earn would make me as rich as a king out there!!!) don’t that make you sick? ...muhaaaaaa

I think you should crash your van into a big expencive car!

Or even better, give it to me, I'll stip all the stickers off, paint it black, and turn it into the A-team van, and we can run around Edinburgh getting into fights and sh*t. I'll be face. If we paint you black, you can be BA. Paul has to be Murdoc (simply because of all the random mutterings). I cant really remember the rest of em.

MOTHER f**kERS.

At the moment I am on a short assured tenancy that I cannot get out of. The only way is asking the landlord (in this case Clyde property) if they would terminate my lease. I just got off the phone and they said No, they will hold me to my lease till November. f**k sake, how am I going to come up with £250 rent a month till November and pay off all my other debts? f**k!!!!

Ok people, I need some good ideas on how I can really piss off Clyde property after I leave, and f**k them over as much as they have f**ked me over.

I'm thinking fish in the wall or something.
