2009 Update: What It's Like To Be Unemployed

Beards and jobs can go together, it CAN work, sometimes it doesn't but the possibility exists. One of my college roommates used to dip Reser's Burritos into peach yogurt, I never thought that would work.

Beards and unemployment go hand in hand. Facial hair is proof you have no one to impress and I don't mean similar to someone completely satisfied with themselves, I mean you literally could not find a person to impress.

Cabin fever hasn't reared its ugly head yet. I've been getting out; trips to Fred Meyer's and the hot tub for a soak.

When you are jobless you appreciate the small things in your day. Using the microwave feels like an accomplishment. I learned how to play Pinochle. I made a birthday calendar on ical and began organizing my music. Receiving an email is once again exciting instead of boring as hundreds funneled into my work account.

Hopefully this blog thing will keep my English skills at a professional level.

That's the unemployment update.

This entry would not be complete without discussing what's been on my TV lately. Blazer games have been a mainstay as I am following them very closely this year.

I checked out The Bachelor premier. As I suspected I hate a majority of the cast. Why can't there be a dating show for real people. We have all the VH1 debauchery... Bret Michaels is a fuck... but nothing to represent the awkward interactions of dating. Where's the guy who knocks a wine glass off a table on the first date?

One month from today and I turn 25. Quarterlife crisis here I come.
