Dear Universe,

I'm ready now.

I've moved to Adelaide, I've settled in. I had a nice break over Christmas and New Year. I've found a daycare centre for Annabelle and hopefully she's going to love it. I've been to Queensland and caught up with friends. I've started all my good healthy habits - exercise, meditation, journal and yes I've even given up drinking. How's that for commitment?

Now I would like to take the next step in my life. I think this means getting a job and I would really like to work at this place if you can swing it. They look like a great, family friendly organisation, doing wonderful work for families of disabled kids. I think I'd love it. They have an office at Christies Beach and if you can swing a job for me, would it be too much for you to get me placed in the beach office?

You see, we went for a drive there yesterday - in anticipation of me getting the job, even though they don't actually have any jobs at the moment - and we think we could seriously handle living there. We spotted a huge (I mean huge) 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom house with pool and spa and about 3 garages and separate sitting room (read: meditation room) three streets back from the beach for under $600k. So if you could just organise the job for me, I'm sure I could convince Mel to offload our shoebox...errrr I mean house... in Sydney and buy that sucker.

Of course I don't expect you to do it all on your own, so I've sent them my CV and asked nicely to be considered for an internship. I've also checked the stars and this looks like a pretty good job-hunting week for me so you've got the planets helping you out too. Shouldn't be too much for a great, big, all-knowing, all-powerful universe like you. Just one little job. Whaddya say?

Thanking you in advance,
me
