Firstly,
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
castlecelt To Darling Trish: Because it's your birthday, I suppose I'll let you have our Piper and Musketeer tonight for some birthday fun---but ONLY because it's your birthday! ;)
Here's wishing you a wonderful, FUNderful birthday!
With the Ides of November, comes a deadline I was hoping I wouldn't have to reach. I decided, way back during the Knoll fiasco, that if I STILL could not find a permanent job by November 15, I was going to lower my pride and go to a temp agency.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with temp agencies. I did that during breaks in college. But, that's just it. I was in college. It's a HUGE step back for me. [I'm speaking of just myself here---it's the same as an art restorer ripping down the Mona Lisa and crumbling it up and saying, "I fucked my restoration, now I'm just gonna have to redo this whole painting."] And then, too, there's always what my sister, Hope, said, maybe I won't get hired anywhere. I don't know. I'm very, very, very nervous about doing this.
So, if I don't hear anything from any of the jobs I applied at by the end of the day today, I'm going to the temp agency Thursday, Friday, or Monday [depending on how the rennovation is going].
Oh! I forgot to mention, we're having the roof to our deck fixed [it was leaking water and had mold in one spot three inches thick]. FINALLY! But, someone needs to be here during the day in case the workers need anything. And guess who that someone gets to be? ME!
That's about it for my sad, little life. I just spent a hour [while debugging the computer] working on my Yahoo! Avatar. I fucking love this thing. And, to make it worse, they keep adding more options each day! [Except they're not adding new handbags, scarves, and jewelry.] If you have a yahoo, go on and check it out. It's really fun! I've also been working on my Yahoo! 360 page and Yahoo! Messenger stuff. [Check me out at my jamesracheld@yahoo.com handle.] I'm all about the Yahoo! right now.
Oh, Unemployment! This holiday season, at least, I understand why people kill themselves at this time of year. What I mean is, I can understand how someone gets so down on the dumps, they don't feel like it'll ever get better. As a result of my troubledness, I once again am not sleeping and am waking after only 2 hours [hence why I'm awake at 4:00 AM].
Anyway, Happy Ides of November Everyone!
