The mean blues

It seems to be my permanent affliction these days, mainly due to being so goddamn unemployed. I had a job interview last Friday but got the very distinct feeling they've already chosen their candidate (long story, not a bad story but don't feel like going into it). Suffice to say, I am not expecting a call back from them. I also have no temp job lined up and with the U. W. in empty summer mode, the jobs are going to be fewer and far between with them. I haven't had a single job with the other temp agency either.

This sucks. I'm scared, to be honest. I can't believe I'm still without a job after all this time. Am I really that unhireable? No, no I'm not, which just makes it even worse.

Please know, I'm not looking for sympathy and, although I know y'all mean well, I'm not looking for "hang in there, something will come along" comments either just now. I just wanted to share my mood. You know, I originally intended this blog to be an online journal like the kind of personal journal I used to keep. Nowadays, I find myself being lazy and just posting cat photos. I want to try and return to more of the journaling aspect, with a Colin or Trixie photo thrown in every once in awhile. It's just that it's difficult to write about one's life when there is nothing going on in one's life. The Big Nothing; hence, the Mean Blues.
