not a damn thing, thats whats new. no job, no good offers. a friend of mine did say Big Y was hiring, so i guess i'll be giving them a call soon. i really dont want to since i know it wont pay much, but beggars cant be choosers, right? my mom also suggested that i call my brothers childhood best friend who i havent even seen since he got married about 7 years ago. hes a manager at cvs, and my mom seems to think he'd help me out if he could...but i just feel wierd calling this guy out of the blue. ugh, desperation. and here i was hoping somehow...something better might come along. fingers still crossed, but no such luck. long story but job placement lady didnt leave me with much of a good feeling, so i dont have much faith in her assistance. i'm also going to try looking into federal grants, but from what i've heard they're next to impossible to get...so, i'm not going to get too excited about the possibility.
and it just sucks because i had all these hopes i was just starting to bring into focus. like the possibility of going back to school and finally getting a degree. the possibility of saving for a house so maybe my parents can have a place to stay when they come to visit. going to visit liz because i miss her so much. and now...now my unemployment checks are barely paying the bills.
on a lighter note, tara's wedding was very nice. the bride in high top pink converse, the groom in classic low-top black converse. excellent. brian actually had a good time...at a formal function. absolutely amazing. he knew a good amount of people there, and i played designated driver. think it was the most content either of us had been at a function like that. it was a relatively good time, and a nice wedding.
i dont have a green candle, but i do have a green votive holder. i've been meditating around that for a few moments each night, trying to visualize myself finding success somehow. i'm trying to keep my eyes on the prize, so to speak. suggestion from a friend. and, a helpful little something i've turned to at several points throughout my life...prayer.
oof. i'm gettin sleepy. thats all folks...until next time.
