and it continues...

..."it" being the emotional rollercoaster known as el job searcho. it's actually more like job boot camp in that it breaks you down so low that you are nothing, and so you have to be built back up again. or at least that is what it feels like.

but there is a lot of other stuff to do. like planning for my trip to oregon and washington. it has been almost year since i was there. i have so many people to see and since this is all kind of last minute, i am sending all of these desperate e-mails to people "please make time for coffee/lunch/beer/whatever."

of course, priority number one is seeing my grandparents. that will be quite an experience i am sure. more on that later. rolla just got back into town so I am gonna go say hey.

sometimes, you just have to get out…

i do not have a very active social life in iowhat. I have Monday evenings with Rolla, Thursday evenings with Amil, and well, the rest involves sitting in my basement, doing a project, possibly accompanied by some pilsner. This is in large part due to (a) the lack of people to hang out with (b) the people I do hang out with have crazy schedules.
Right now, I am tired. I want to go home and take a nap. But I also have a strong desire to go out, to be wild, oh, to be 25 again. It’s like turning 26 immediately aged me. Reruns of Frasier seem good now. I am starting to feel nostalgia or something. And I use eye crème more and more.

Sorry, I just fell asleep for a second there.

Well, it is probably just the weather. It is actually beginning to rain here, not snow. Amazing, huh? I suppose this is good preparation for my trip to Oregon, which will hopefully take place beginning March 4, but we shall see what the travel gods have in mind.
