Piano bar, court, that lady, oh she drives me crazy!

Little excitement is stirring inside, but things are looking pretty good at the moment. I m still staying with that lady. It s been very kind and generous of her. I don t know how I would have lived so far. I moved into her place at 25 th of December, just on the Christmas Eve and today is already 10 th of January. Huuh..2 weeks..just about that.
 She acts like mum, talks about her son and compares me with his son, well his son is 35 and I m 29, so yes, not many years difference. She wants to help here and there and one stage I couldn t stand it anymore and I said:
"Hey, relax! Take it easy! Don t get too excited! I want to manage things on my own, ok..?"
"I m just trying to help", she said.
I got my job as a security now, but it s only on the weekends and I was thinking to get some more hours, so get another job as well. Was thinking to just play piano in different bars and then once she got so excited:
"Hey, I know the place, RSL, you could play there!"
What she does, she goes to dress up herself and comes to the living room:
"I m ready!" 
I was a bit surprised and to be honest a bit upset.
"So what s happening now..I m just trying to have some fun and maybe even earn some money," I was thinking in my head.
"So I have to entertain her too," I realised her thought.
I tried to show my dfispleasurement to her, but it looked like a rudeness to her obviously. I just didn t know what to say.
So we go, I just present myself in reception. Administrator gives me the number of the manager who runs the events and stuff. I just simply walk off, find a piano and check the building. Once I don t see her, I leave the building and go back "home".
"I just wanna hear how you play, I love pianos!" she told me later. Obviously I was rude to her.
Actually she has helped me a lot. Where else I would have lived? Just on the beaches. And the venues are also near to the Southport and from Southport it s not far to go to work. So actually in that,  it couldn have been even better. So I m just quiet. I work, have place to be, start saving money again and in couple of weeks I should be able to rent a room with some young people already. Jaanus is planning to take a flat just next to ocean, with amazing view to the ocean. I just need more hours and I want to pay back some bills that I owe to my brother and ..also police tickets. Eh, yesterday I went to court, because of one incident. But in court the was no case waiting for me. It was my first experience in court and I hope I never have to go there again. Police simply lied to me. They just picked on me, made a fun of me. So there was no court case for me and I was waiting for that for a month!. It was just being drunk in public place, they picked me up, didn t give me any tickets but that paper. It said something that if you don t pay bla bla bla,  I couldn t understand it much, but I remember police telling me:
"You have to go to court on 9 th on Jan". I m like whatevver!??!
Anyway, nothing happened. I just need to be sober and act normally.
So I have place to be, hoping to get some more work and see how it goes. Today actually I went for that interview and, in  the Oasis shopping Centre just by the Broadbeach, on  the 1 floor, there was a girl playing piano, just in the middle of the pathways..it was part of the bar. After my appointment I came down and asked about the piano.
"I saw girl playing piano here before. How does it work with this piano? I m actually also pianist."
"Aaah..mmm," the girl waves to another guy.
"So yeah, just wondering how does it work with this piano, I saw a girl playing before, I m also pianist."
"Do you just wanna play or for job?" he asks quickly.
"For job."
"The graphic is full, but you can write down your name and number and we will contact when we need," he gave me the paper, rolling it out from the receipt machine.
Done. Another chance to play. I really would like to play somewhere. If I had piano at home, I wouldn t even want to play somewhere on the restaurants, but I don t have. So if I get the chance, I play for myself, when getting also paid. Why not.
And that s it for now. If I get time and enthusiasm to write, I ll do it again.
Oh, I cut my hair as well.
