Unemployed
I quit my job last week. The work would have been fine, really, if most of the people I worked with were different. My boss just made it impossible to have any enthusiasm for the job, and impossible to have any desire to work hard. That's like a talent, right? Sucking out peoples ambition? Sounds like it.
I have spent the past week or so looking for new jobs. I have sent out a ton of resumes (and even resorted to applying at CVS and Barnes and Noble) but nothing has panned out yet. I should enjoy this little vacation I have, but I'm BORED. I don't have any friends around here and never really manage to talk to any of my old friends. TV and the internet can only entertain you for so long before you start to feel like sludge, ya know?
I'm still not used to things out here and am homesick once or twice a day. I'm also bummed that I won't be starting another school year next week with everyone else. I guess I just don't like change and I want things to go back to the way they were. Hell, I even miss delivering pizzas..
Anyway, I'm trying to get used to California. I'm glad that I get to be with Paul, but there isn't really anything else out here for me.
Oh.. what else... we went wine tasting (Paul, Paul's dad, me, Paul's friend, and paul's friend's wife) this past weekend, and I realize now, more than ever, but I really don't like wine and it all pretty much tastes the same to me (no matter how expensive it is). It was good to get out of the house though! Drunk conversations also are always the most interesting.
That's about all I have for now. If you have any ideas about how I can spend my days, let me know!
I'll update again when something exciting happens.
