How am I doing? Friends and family ask me this. I'm not sure what to say. Because I'm unemployed. Thus I feel like a non-functioning member of society (not true...I still have to buy stuff, like food). I have the job of looking for work, sending millions of emails with my resume attached to them, calling employers of all kinds, but I find there's a lot of time to sink into the unemployment stupor. The one where you watch movies and eat ice cream as a way to escape the reality that you have nothing to do today. Luckily I have been generally able to avoid the unemployment stupor this time around, by giving myself a daily to-do list and kicking myself out of my apartment as much as possible. And it all seems to be working okay...except I'm not getting a job. I'm working on myself, trying to take the time (because I have so much of it anyway) to really listen to my inner voice. My inner voice that tells me, "I'm bored...".
What's a girl to do? Sit in a coffeeshop and update her blog, I guess. Maybe I'll get adventurous and do something with pictures. Maybe someone will walk up and give me a job spontaneously. Maybe I'll...find some ice cream. Yeah, I can handle that task.
