Today I got put onto monthly set pay, i.e. A Real Person's Salary. This is mostly important as it means I GET SICK PAY. I've never had that before. It also comes with a very slight increase in money. I believe the technical term is 'wahey'?

I am celebrating with wine and watching all the exciting TV I've been able to download. Downton Abbey is a lot more fabulous than I had expected from an ITV drama, I'll tell you that much.

Oh, god, salary, renting a house and watching period drama SHIT I THINK THIS PUSHES ME INTO BEING A GROWN-UP.

Downton Abbey is fabulous! I'm a little in love with Cousin Matthew...

He has very blue eyes; I'm not sure if I've noticed much else yet, but I'll keep you all posted!

He has terrible hair. I mentioned this on Twitter, he found my tweet and then tweeted me back apologising. I almost died of mortification and fangirlitude.

How on earth did you not have sick pay before?! I know short term jobs wouldn't, but you have had this job for ages! I'm glad you have it now, anyway.

I DON'T WANT TO BE A GROWN-UP. Please can we not be grown-ups? It's scary and tiring.
