Well, I've been really upset/depressed lately about not having a job. Now I feel like it is a gift from God that I don't. My friend Mary is living and working in London for the summer. Back in June she invited me to come in July and visit and stay with her. I was THRILLED and it was the biggest motivator in my job hunt, because I agreed w/myself that I would not go unless I found a job by now, and had some free time before the job started. If I had found a job back when I started my job hunt, it is HIGHLY likely I would be in London today. The bus bomb went off less than 2 blocks from where I lived in 2003 which is unnerving too. I'm so comfortable with the underground and bus system from that summer, that I'm frightened by the possibility if I were in London, I would have been using mass transit. I know, I know, when you let fear get to you, you let the terrorists win, but I'm still really freaked out right now. I just want to go back to bed and not think about it, ya know? Mary is in London, and I still haven't heard from her. I don't have her phone number there, so I'm just hoping she signs online and I see her on IM, or she checks her e-mail.
I guess the big thing I've taken from this is just learning to take life as it comes to you. I've been trying SOOO hard to find a job, RIGHT NOW, and maybe there's a reason I don't have a job right now. Maybe I just need to take a deep breath, and let things happen as they are supposed to.
