Yesterday was completely miserable. It was the first day of unemployment that I spent with absolutely NOTHING to do, no money and no motivation to entertain myself. The day began with a woman from my credit union yelling at me and it snowballed from there. I spent the entire day waiting by my phone for a call back from Underground Printing that didn't come until early this morning. I am starting a two day trial period with them tomorrow. All I know about t-shirt printing is what I learned in graphic arts in high school. Hopefully that will be enough. The job meets my bare bones minimum for what I need. It's 9:00am to 5:00pm five days a week. I could ride my bike to work, afford to live in Ann Arbor next year, they would probably give me benefits but I don't know. Best of all, I would no longer be working with the public and that would be a nice change. I could wear my shittiest clothes to work and wait to shower until I come home. I would just roll out of bed and ride to work. The whole idea is quite appealing.
I'm still dead set on grad school 2006.
