fixing myself a Jean Bradford

[photosynthesis]

I'm really tempted to drink myself into an oblivion tonight.  I'm not going to, because I don't like the idea of becoming an alcoholic even though I feel pretty low.  Going to the Adoration chapel is probably a better idea

I somehow have missed every one of your posts for the past month

I am sorry you are having this difficulty, because I know you have been diligently working on the job-getting thing for many months now. Even though I know something will eventually turn up or you will take a direction that works better for you, that's not easier right now. I don't agree with the poster above, at least to this extent: while the marginal value of the college degree has declined, that's because so many people have them; we are not better off if we don't pursue them. Getting that "first job" in a good professional situation is hard, but it always was, especially when going to college was hard. I can hardly think of anyone who wasn't in one of those pre-professional majors that tends to lead in an organized way directly to a job who did not have some heart failure during the transition. There isn't anything wrong with you, and you will get a job you can be pleased with.
