My eyes are going to fall out from staring at the screen. I think it’s time to stand up and move my limbs a bit…maybe if it’s dry out I’ll mow the front lawn. Or go sit on the couch and watch all the stuff I’ve recorded on the TiVo for the past week that I haven’t gotten to yet.
The job search thing is just so much fun…you have a list of sites bookmarked, and then you visit them one-by-one. If you’re lucky, there are new postings. If you’re not lucky, you’re sitting there trying to figure out if that one year of physics you took in high school could maybe qualify you as having a science background.
Ideally, I’d get work doing THIS. You know, blogging. Or creative writing. I sadly came to the conclusion that no ad agencies are going to hire me because I’m too old, and I didn’t go to school for advertising. But see, I’m a natural, and I’ve got marketing people who will back me up on this. I have a good head for this stuff…plus I’ve done some self-study. But still, I’m not 22, and I don’t live in New York City. So I guess that means I’m going to have to look for something else.
I hope you don’t mind my job hunt whining. Well, of course, tough cookies if you do, but this is the personal blog. I won’t include this depressing junk in the main Dump. This space is reserved for “What Jody’s Doing Right Now.”
Okay, off to update the BirchBark website. I noticed the PO Box number was wrong on the home page. I actually don’t understand, because I’d fixed that once already. Plus yesterday I had to spend some of my pennies to renew the danged thing. $35 and the only thing I’ve EVER received is junk mail. Oh well, at least now I don’t have to re-do my business cards, etc.
