Fair weather with periods of clouds...
Jul. 6th, 2004 05:05 pmActually feeling the periods of clouds more than the fair weather mood wise. Spent last two days applying for jobs, contacting staffing firms, re-writing resumes, and writing cover letters. Am burnt and frustrated and well, a tad worried and depressed over my future. This can't go on forever...for numerous reasons. Shudder. Hopefully interview I've set up with yet another staffing company this Thurs will turn out well.
So off to my livejournal I flee for needed distraction and a little venting. Not too much venting, considering how boring it is to all concerned.
Currently reading Jim Butcher's Grave Peril which is actually more interesting than Fool Moon, even though I mostly listened to someone else read that one. (A lot more fun listening to James Marsters read Harry Dresden, then trying to imagine James Marsters as Harry Dresden.) Oh well, it's a nice change of pace from Dunnett. And I like escaping into Dresden's world, nice distraction from my own increasingly annoying one.
Managed to miss the recommended Randall and Hopskirt (deceased) last night - dang. I was flipping channels and decided to read and play online instead. Oh well, guess I can always grab it next week. This is the BBC-AMERICA series that everyone said that Spike and Angel in the beginning part of this season reminded them of. One cop is living and his partner is a ghost who makes wise-cracks.
I've noticed people asking the following question in their livejournals of late: "why do you read my livejournal?" Have decided to refrain. I figure if you read me you have your reasons - some of which are probably not so easy to put into words. Sometimes, to be honest I forget anyone is actually reading it and am a little surprised when I actually get responses. (Wonder if that comes across?)
Feeling at loose ends again - I think it's because I haven't been able to write anything creatively for a while - whether it be an essay or a story, and it's getting to me. Like something's missing from my life. There was a brief moment of creative out-put last Thurs, but it dissappaited on Friday and so as a result I'm cranky? Also have a headache, right above the eyes, which means leaving this real soon.
