So please excuse my annoying rant lol >_I'm stuck. I need money and I need to be happy. Before I had a job I was sooo happy, now I have a job and money, but Im not happy. I wake up every morning dreading going to work... This is exactly

Incidentally, I was going to avoid getting into my beatnik philosophy since talking about the current economy is so beaten to death. However, since Richard chimed in with something along that vein, forgive me...

I agree with him. Honestly, if there is one thing that this current recession is doing for so many, its helping give people enough chance to break free of the monotony of this system. This system, might I add, that has failed many of us. Those same people that looked down at me, then chided me about not falling in line, are now down in the same pit with me. The current economy is a great equilizer, honey.

I know tons of people in a worse off mental state than you about losing a job or having a boss from hell. Why? Society has taught us that our existance's worth is dependant on if we are conforming to the 9 to 5 world. 2 years prior I found myself making the same kind of journal entries as this post and also figured maybe Im not meant to have a real job.

Am I dead yet? Am I washed up? Am I meth head knockin over the next liquor store for her fix? Nope! Contrary to what society tells you, you dont need a 9 to 5 to prevent going down those kinds of bad roads.

Nothing wrong with doing something different. If the system is working you and you have better ideas on how to stay afloat, than go with them. This philosophy has been carried by me much to my sister's dismay (who is leading a "traditional" life). You have already seen some of the venom she slang at me for that. I have shrugged it off. Sometimes it seems like the loneliest road but its really not. You are getting a chance ot follow your bliss!
