Welcome to Friday. It’s been a long week. I’ve been a day ahead since Monday. So today should really be Saturday but it’s not. I would shed a tear but I’m not that attached to specific days of the week considering everyday can be a Saturday when I’m not in contract work land.
Earlier today I read a post from a fellow unemployed blogger, Fired For Now, who ask when unemployment bloggers get jobs, is it ok for them to continue blogging?
I still care passionately about the issues that I’ve written about for the past several months. I’d like to continue. But I’m also very sensitive to the fact that it may seem inappropriate and out of place. Who wants to hear the rattlings of someone who’s now gone over to the other side? Fired for Now
Occasional I have moments where I think that it would be grand for someone to pay me to remain unemployed. No, EDD does not count. I had my wishes set on some externally rich friend who found me funny and lovably unemployed. Kinda like Balki from Perfect Strangers but instead of being related to Cousin Larry, I’d be getting a free ride for being unemployed. No worry, that fantasy passes quickly. I like leaving my apartment more than once a week, and I think my cats are tired of seeing me everyday. Besides, running yesterday at 4:00 in the afternoon on a bright and shiny day in Golden Gate Park was pretty incredible. Don’t judge. It wasn’t yoga at noon, now was it?
I’ve learned a lot from these past few months. I’ve learned that I’m not my job, that television is a better teacher than trees and I still prefer eggs and granola over cereal.
