today was a weird one...
i woke up to an email saying that i had been waitlisted for my first choice of accommodation (the shared apartment with the university) but that there was space available in other options if i wanted to nominate a different first choice...
i met with a social worker who was going to go with me to work and income...
she turned out to be alright. better than alright, actually. tiny little old lady. brilliant, she was.
they are going to see about getting me on the invalid's benefit. which means... i can afford the deluxe studio apartment (entirely self contained) with the university. the doc needs to write a letter in support... there is a whole jury f*ck*ng panel who decide 'yes, easy' or 'wait a f*ck*ng minute' then hold up the works by making me get re-assessed by one of their designated dr's. i... don't anticipate too much of a problem, actually. turns out p-doc did specialize in actually treating autism over in England... and he is a public doc rather than being some private assessment that i paid megabucks for myself.
i said my first choice was the deluxe studio and they said they would email me an offer on monday.
so...
it is possible... that everything could work out... really well. that i actually am being given a f*ck*ng chance by the universe.
please
oh please
oh pleaselet it be so. and let it turn out that... i'm good at science.
