General Update

In many ways, life is getting back to normal. I spend most days wanting to kill my mother. That's normal. I'm cooking 2 meals a day, and getting essentially no help or recognition, and I spend a good portion of my time entertaining my nieces, not because there isn't anyone else available, but because nobody else can be bothered to do it

I'm sorry you weren't able to get the tax job and about all the badness that's still going on. I'm really going to try to get my box of happy mailed before the weekend.

I'm trying to decide if I should go spend time at PriMed (doc-in-a-box place) today or just hold out until my furlough (week of Feb. 8). I think I *might* have a sinus infection, but I feel considerably better than I have, so maybe not.

Well, I'm still looking for work. It kind of sucks to not get the tax job because it was easy, and people have to do their taxes no matter how bad the economy is, where a lot of other places that I'm qualified to work aren't hiring because of the state of the economy. BestBuy has a sign up saying their hiring floor associates though, and I want to get an application in there. It's not office work, but at least I'd be selling computers and things rather than random Wal-Mart crap, and they tend to promote from within so there's the possibility I'd move into the Geek Squad or something where nobody really expects you to have social skills as long as you can make their computer work again
