So you might be sitting around wondering “Why isn’t Brenda posting?”

The main answer is, nothing interesting has happened (and The OC has gone off the air for the summer) so I have nothing to talk about.

The other answer is, my computer is broken. Still, again, always. I even reinstalled Windows, losing all my programs. (I miss you Photoshop!) Nothing works.

I haven’t been having the most horrible time, though the eating breakfast and watching TBS’s hour of Saved by the Bell at noon followed by Law & Order on Bravo at one stuff got old fast.

Nice stuff has happened, like on Friday I got an ice cream cone and then we walked from Eaton Centre to my house. (If you aren’t from Toronto and/or don’t know where I live, just understand that this is a really long way to walk, especially when it’s hot and you’ve been walking all day anyway.) But it’s basically boring.

Yesterday, I had the most pleasant laundry-doing experience ever. Sul, who I am subletting from, advised me to go to the laundromat down the block rather than the mega-sketch laundry room in the house. I had used a laundromat, only the coin-op and then card-op machines in the basements of my residences. Laundromats are my new favourite thing. Unlike the basement rooms, someone actually keeps the laundromat clean and the machines in good repair. The laundromat owner is a very nice Greek man who chats about the weather and gives you change. It’s bright and clean and airy and you can sit on a plastic chair and read Harper’s while you wait for your laundry. It was really not a bad way to spend a Sunday afternoon. It was so pleasant, I am going to start doing my laundry more than once a month!

Either that, or get a job and start leaving the house more often.

I just had my second interview for that telemarketing job. I start training tomorrow and if I don’t suck, then I get to keep the job. It’s not so bad. It doesn’t seem very secure though (get let go if you don’t make quotas) and the hours aren’t as good as they could be. Hopefully I will hear back from one of the million places I’ve applied to and maybe get something part time for nights/weekends as well. Really, at this point I don’t care, without my computer, I have nothing to do and no money and I will go crazy.
