Still in existence, still no word from the agency. I think I'll ring them tomorrow and nag them into giving me an interview. I knew I'd have to do that. Agencies are absolutely useless. I put £200 into the bank today, so I'm getting back on track. Until the next time I'm suddenly penniless without warning! I need something more stable, for the good of my health if nothing else. I'm walking around (and driving around) in a slightly blurry world at the moment, since the death of my spectacles. I can't get an appointment until Monday (which is good really, 'cause the money I get from Riley and Roxy at the weekend will pay for it). I had some awful tooth pain going on yesterday. I need at least two fillings but can't afford treatment, even if I change to an NHS dentist. It's a bit better today though. It's alright if I don't blast it with substances of extreme temperature, or breathe in sharply. My God, I thought I was going to be sick from the pain yesterday. I spent the entire afternoon in tears of agony. Ain't never felt the like. I know the 'I need a filling' pain well, and this was ten times worse. I think I need a root filling. Rubbish. I swear my teeth are crumbling away. And my wrist is still causing me pain. All these ailments. They're very welcome, really, on top of everything else. This year seems like it's going to continue to try me.

On a lighter note, the dogs have been eating chicken wings, fish and an old swede for the last couple of days, and this evening the room is... shall we say, fragrant. I actually yelled out my disgust, and I can usually bear horrible smells quite well. I've never smelt anything so horrendous. Anna lit an incense stick and I jumped up and moved away from the main culprit, only for him to follow me and curl up at my feet again. My Didz. He's turning into such a loyal little collie, even if he does smell viiile, as Katy says. I think I'm starting to bond with Didz now. As cute as puppies are, I think the best bit is when they grow up and start to learn how to be your friend.

My lodger has mention emergency dental treatment in the past - is that something that you might be able to get? I'm afraid that I know nothing about it other than that it might exist - sorry I can't be of more use.

Yeah, I think I'll ring NHS Direct if that pain comes back. I don't really want to go to the dentist though, pathetic as it sounds. I've been over ten times in the last three years and I'm still too scared! /pussy

Emergency Dentists

There is a number.... let me find it. I went and it only cost me £12.50 and they were very thorough for an emergency appointment. I went up by the uni, but I think there is one on Bitterne. They were very helpful, did a full x-ray and said if the problem persisted I could go back, when normally you have to make an appointment with your normal dentist. He even offered to whip out me wisdom teeth for me, but we were just going on hols so I thought better off it. I can't find it for the minute. I will be back.

Dogs and their viiile smells, Meg has been rather fragrant after being spade. She will be more so now she is on antibiotics.

Agreed on the best bit about doggies. The day they know what to do and where to go when you raise one eyebrow is the day you know that you are bonded and best mates.

Good luck with the job hunt also.

Haha, he's not quite that grown up yet. Drives me nuts still. I still find myself shouting SHUT THE HELL UP at him as he can't seem to grasp speaking and hushing on cue!

Thank you, I'm hoping something worthwhile comes along. x
