My high school classmate who died of breast cancer in August 08 always remarked on her Caringbridge site that if she didn't post for awhile, it was because she never had good news, it was always bad bad bad news about her health and she didn't feel like talking about it.
Thus is the case here for the past few weeks. I haven't had much to say, and I really didn't want to talk about it. I went on hiatus for the holidays, and I loved it. I loved not worrying about looking for a job, attending networking meetings, applying on-line, blah blah blah.
I loved not talking about "it". (I didn't love that Leah has turned into a whiny monster right before my eyes, but that's a different story...)
I'm bored with the whole unemployed thing. I'm sick of it. I want to go back to work. I wanted a job for Christmas but alas, it was not meant to be. I want some company to believe in me again, but until then, I will have to continue to believe in myself.
A new year, and with that comes new hope for me and all my fellow job seekers.
Time again to get down to business. And as the wind fell out of my sails, two e-mails this morning from people I talked with weeks ago, with offers for informational meetings with them.
Then, the phone rang. An interview. (and this time, for a job I actually applied for....)
Thank you God. 2009 is here with a vengeance.

Hooray on the emails and the interview. We're still eagerly following the progress (and I choose that word with expectation) on your blog.
You're allowed a blah-blog once in a while. But also anticipating the "return of the humor"!! And anticipating the "good news blog".

You know, when we first moved here to Champaign, life was hard. It sucked. 3 states away with no benes and no jobs but a full compliment of diabetes. I pretty much stopped writing, too, and for the same reason. I understand. Enjoyed your unorthodox Christmas party, though!
