Thursday was, quite frankly, exceptionally dull. I got out of bed very late, didn't get dressed until much later, and pretty much did absolutely zero in terms of anything productive. It was partly just being tired, but I think more so that I slipped and got stuck in that nasty rut of procrastination ( Read more... )

So, Tuesday turned out to be a pretty good day; certainly one of the better ones I've had since the noble ship Rebel Monkey capsized and sunk like a lead life jacket to the bottom of the Indie Game ocean (and it's actually pretty crowded down there ( Read more... )

My day thus far (and man, I'm really into making lists these days):

• For the first time since I lost my job, I was up before 7 AM. I know: on a Saturday, no less? This was not, however, a choice of my own free will. Rather, I seem to have developed something of a rash over the past week and last night it was itching just enough that I could never get ( Read more... )

So I've been officially unemployed for about a month and half, now, and find myself a bit disoriented.

Not because I feel like I can live on the Kingly salary (cough) provided by my Unemployment check, nor because I've lost the will to search, but rather because I feel like that the time I spend looking and ( Read more... )

I had an "interview" of sorts today with a small company that ranks pretty high on the cool scale. I say "interview" because they weren't hiring at the moment, but liked my resume and background enough (and remember, I sent in the resume blind -- they never knew I existed beforehand) that they wanted a chance to sit down on talk with me ( Read more... )

In addition to the job hunt, I'm cracking open some ideas on side projects that I want to work on which should (that's the key word) help out in my search ( Read more... )

First, I chatted with my sister, who had been unemployed for 3 months. Then, I read a post from a nice woman who had been unemployed 7 months. Then, I read a profile of a girl who has been unemployed for a year ( Read more... )
