Combating Super-Boredom

Apr 22, 2010 01:14

It keeps casting Sleep on me. IT'S SUPER EFFECTIVE!

I feel like I am running out of things to do down here and it may be driving me a bit crazy. I have an idea for a story/book that may keep me busy, but the premise might be impossible, so just forget that for now. If I work out the kinks I'll let you know about it, but as is I'm not sure how to get it to work, or how to even articulate it effectively. Scratch that, how to make the characters articulate effectively. It involves a physics thought problem I sort of made up the other day when thinking about relativity. If you want to discuss it with me, there's always email, or Facebook, or...well I'm not really on AIM all that much these days so nevermind.

Job search is the same. The worst part is I haven't heard anything, from anyone. I got a call from a recruiter when I updated my resume, but it didn't sound like they could actually help me. They were looking for someone to do contract work for some system I hadn't heard of before. But otherwise nothing, just auto-reply emails saying they got my application. No rejection notices though. I'm not sure if that's just how they do it in Texas, or what, but it is really fucking nerve wracking. I suppose I could start doing phone follow-ups, but I find that rarely gets farther than, "We'll call you if we need to, good-bye."

I'm also becoming more and more aware of just how lonely I am. I keep trying not to think about it too much, but it's really hard, and I feel that if I stop thinking about all together then I'll just give up and be alone for a really long time, maybe forever. [Something else that is sad and emo]. [Self-pity, self-pity, self-pity]. [Whine, whine, whine]. Enough of that.

Good news, I get a very nice tax return. Bad news, my parent's accidentally claimed me as a dependent again when they shouldn't have. Thus they have to send back some money (sadness), and I have to wait an extra week or two (or three) for my return to actually process (more sadness).

Anyway, yeah. Due to boredom I've been sleeping more, or maybe it's due to depression...or not eating enough of some vitamin or mineral. But I was asleep from 11pm to 4am yesterday, then 2pm to 9pm this afternoon, and now it's 1am and I'm tired again. Prior to that it was 10pm to 5am followed by 1pm to 5pm....I don't know. Hopefully things turn around soon so I can get out of this miserable rut.
