A Note from Job Search Hell

So here we are.... I've been unemployed two years as of August 28th, sent out over 1000 resumes, and have attended some form of over 100 interviews. I have but one thing to say....






















While I have been able to support myself with my writing, unemployment, and the occasional throwing myself to the mercy of former CEO's I've worked for....I. WANT. A. JOB! My job. My desk. My tasks and duties. My pens. My computer.

I vacillate between BLISS and sheer panic. Learning to be ''in the moment'' has become a necessity and not just a lofty goal. Helpful hint: Chest pain from anxiety and chest pain from a heart attack are eerily similar. Learned that from a recent ER visit.

Yeah....forging ahead here. Let's look at a picture of kittens because....well....it calms us all down...right?...RIGHT?....RIGHT!!?!

I am in your boat - minus the whole unemployment money thing. Thankfully The Man has a great job but things are still day to day. You'll get there!! Keep your head up!
