Moving
Since I got back up here in January I've been looking for a new job and applying to graduate school. My best shot at a job was with the food co-op, which was opening a new store, so they were hiring tons of people. I applied for a job as a baker or as a baker's assistant. Today I went down to the food co-op to get my favorite bread, and I asked them if they had finished hiring, they said that they had hired everyone they were going to.
I've begun to realize that when I'm in a stressful situation that requires making big decisions, I become inert. I remember that happening to me in Alaska while hostessing, but that was mainly because I was trying to figure out how to do work in such a way that my manager would yell at me the least. (He was an awful manager).
Anyway, I realized that trying to decide whether to stay or to move was making me inert. I couldn't make a decision one way or the other. I kept trying to hold out and maybe something would pull through. But nothing has pulled through. So I made the decision today to move in with my mom in Kenmore. Boy to I feel pathetic saying that. The good thing is if I get a job down there, I will be able to save more money for when I eventually go to grad school.
I posted my room for sublet today on craigslist and I already have four responses, so I'm going to write them back and have them come and see the room next week, while I start moving down.
I really hope I get a job in Seattle.
