further to fly
So as of today, I am officially unemployed for four months. Huzzah. If anyone knows anyone in the NYC area who could use a stage manager/techie/temp admin from end of August through beginning of December, I will gladly pass them my resume. I've been browsing around the usual theater job sites for weeks, but the pickings are slim at the moment. Next week I'll apply to all the temp agencies I can find. At least I qualify for unemployment benefits. Yay.
I'm also getting on a plane tonight to spend the next week in Seattle. It's for a family reunion, and those plans were made before I found out that I was going to be unemployed, but hey, I could definitely use a change of scenery right now. I've definitely been feeling the depression creeping up the back of my brain for the past week or so -- it's been hard to focus on doing anything I enjoy, I desperately want to see people but simultaneously shrink back from communication, and all I want to do is sleep -- so here's hoping the vacation from normal life will stave that off a bit. I really, really don't do well when I'm bored. Bah. On the plus side, my social life in NYC is a VAST improvement over my lack thereof in D.C., so that helps a lot.
So...yay, Seattle! I have never been there before. This should be fun.
