Aimless wandering

Never go out for hours unless you've got something to do in those hours. I walked into town today to get away from another lecture of "Get a job and move out.", and ended up spending seven hours in town. I spent about two hours searching for jobs, and only found one, which I went and asked about. I need to hand a C.V. to them. Perfect. I'm having trouble typing one out because I honestly can't remember the dates of when I did the jobs.

I ended up having to spend the remaining five hours wandering around town aimlessly with nothing at all to do. Not good. I ended up wishing I've taken the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy novel I got today into town with me so I would've sat somewhere and read that for a while, but I never took it with me sadly. Only two things happened which distracted me from my bored, aimless wandering. One was a helicopter that was randomly hovering over an area, like it was looking for someone; I'm still curious about what the hell it was doing. I sat watching it for a bit to see what was happening, but it eventually left. The second thing was a young kid who walked up to me holding a small bottle shaped plastic tub containing what looked like jelly, but she claims it was goo. She was telling me about how "We're not allowed to throw goo into the bin.". I responded "Oh, really?", and she told me "Yeah...because it makes the bin all gooey and not nice."; she was tossing the jelly/goo onto the floor in small blobs while telling me all this, then threw the empty tub onto the floor and left.

It's a shame there weren't more kids being weird like that around...would've been a lot more entertaining than the aimless wandering.

I managed to get rid of some of the Betterware items to which Neil had lost the order forms for. I still have a few items though that I really need to figure out the locations for. It's going to require some aimless walking around and knocking on doors, which I'm not up for doing now because I've done enough aimless walking and don't want to do more of it. I'll work on it tomorrow. I have a list of people who have ordered stuff in the past and all, so I'll just have to go down the list for the area the orders are for, and knock on each door and hope for a reply. There's only...eleven houses on the list that need to be tried. Shouldn't take too long, assuming people are home when I try and that they remember what the hell they ordered.
