In the system again...

I think my extended visa application will be approved, which means it looks as though I'm going to be a legit citizen again.

Which means I'll be able to look for full time work. From the point of view of the relative strength of the pound against the dollar, that's probably a good thing. Of course, that also means I'll have to try and be a respectable, employable such-and-such, which may not be so good. The last time I demonstrated any aptitude at work, it was at strangling junior high students and drawing cartoon pictures of monsters and Santa Claus and Kamen Rider and such.

Somehow I don't think that'll do me much good here. Damn stupid non-transferable skills. When is there going to be a job that requires a command of English grammar, Japanese pop-culture trivia, QuarkXPress and a willingness to drink alcohols of many lands?
