Just a quick post to wish everyone who celebrates it:

*sniff* *sniff*

I have a cold. And a sore throat. It's my own fault because I went to a friend's b-day party Saturday night and spent most of the time outside on the balcony either smoking or chatting (and wearing only a strappy top) --> hence I'm now sick! :(

I hadn't smoked in months, not since my dissertation that dealt with the effects of smoking on teeth, but I simply couldn't resist a couple of ciggies....

Anyway, I'm now in bed, wrapped in a blanket and sipping cough syrup. I also feel exhausted because my mother decided to drag me around the local shopping centre all day to buy Christmas presents. Since when has it become a precaution to buy Christmas presents 3 weeks in advance and still have to deal with large crowds?!!

Job-wise: still nuthin'! Both jobs I was hoping to hear back from haven't contacted me so I'm starting to despair a little... There's no way I'll find anything now until January, no new jobs have been posted in days.

In other news:

- I finally watched Dr Horrible's Sing Along Blog and thought it was pretty good. Nathan Fillion is hilarious as the vain superhero and I loved Neil Patrick Harris. He's great and I've recently started watching How I Met Your Mother as well, which is an awesome show! How come no one mentioned this to me before?! :D
- TV holiday break is killing me... no more Supernatural! :( Thank God, Gossip Girl and Heroes aired this week! I'm off to watch them now...
