In which she is vain

I'm an adult again.

Today I resumed sensible adult employment. After reading this, I've stopped to take note that I'm earning an entirely adequate salary while also being able to contribute to a job that, while dreary and uninspiring, is entirely divested from ethically dubious corporate enterprise. I work for the branch of the government that makes sure commonwealth public servants don't spend their retirement penniless and hungry.

I do this for one year, and I'll settle my credit card and have enough money for a small fortune in medical expenses (which are offset, somewhat, by my countries socialised healthcare, and offset somewhat further by my private health insurance[1]). I have to live in a town that meets absolutely none of my emotional needs, but I've reached an accommodation with that.

SPOILERS! (Click to view)
1: Which, as a result of my country's socialised medicine, must provide "over and above meeting your medical needs" care (and dental care, because we don't socialise that yet) in order to be competitive, rather than "we will take your money and maybe you can have nothing, yeah?"

I'd much rather private care was done away with entirely; I'd be happy to pay the twenty dollars a fortnight mine costs in additional tax, and have socialised dentistry. But we don't have that yet.
