Month: April 2003

I’ve changed my Blogrolling list so the blogs are listed by how recently they were updated. Some of them don’t ever seem to show that they’ve been updated, so I assume that means I probably don’t have the link the owner uses on Weblogs. Oh, and now it shows those updated in the past 6 hours, instead of three, but the closer a blog is to the top, the more recently it was updated.

And I added a link to Where is Raed, which everyone seems to be following. It’s a blog from Bahgdad. He hasn’t updated since March 24th.

Of course, if you don’t visit any of the links I’ve provided, you can just skip this entry.

I just got NO sleep last night. First time since I was laid off in January 2002 that I lost sleep over my unemployment. I’m just not getting nibbles…I’m about ready to pay someone to re-write my resume, but hey, that costs money! I was freaking out all night because my unemployment claim ends in early May and I’m not convinced I’ll qualify for an extension. Nobody in my local office could help me with that info. My current claim is already only 19 weeks, instead of 26 or 30, which is what I got last year, because I only worked a couple of months (last summer).

I just don’t know what I’m going to do if nothing comes up in the next 5 weeks. I don’t want to have to get a job just to get a job. I’d like to stay in my field. But that field just doesn’t have openings. Grrrrrrrr.

I was going to do a whole fake website April Fool’s joke thing, but you know, that requires time and energy and a really clever idea. So instead, you get the normal everyday Big DumpTruck, complete with nothing funny, as usual.

p.s. Monkeys have taken over the Cartoon Network. What’s great are the bumpers between cartoons that show the monkeys in the Cartoon Network offices, a la Lancelot Link. Very funny.
