small milestones (and a gip - dark knight style)

Today, I mowed the lawn.

Excuse me while try really hard not to scratch my face off from all the bug bites I got

Not-job-having is starting to be a drag again. I'm really enjoying the free time and all the reading, but at some point, I'd like to start some variety of a career - and two separate blog posts from people who I know to be in the same hunt (for entry-level writing jobs) have not given me a lot of hope (granted, they are both in NYC, where I think it might be a physical impossibility to get a EA or similar job, as opposite to highly unlikely here). One is a Columbia MS journalism grad, which really doesn't feel good, considering my whole plan was "grad school to the rescue!" after this or next year.

The deafening silence in response to my many many queries is not helpful.

Eureka is on tonight, for all those who love that silly and pretty awesome show. I like any television that decides a sing-a-long is a good idea for a marketing campaign, and pulls it off. Props, y'all.

daygloparker, etc. I know, I know, but I cannot bring myself to find and watch Middleman. Maybe one day.

I could probably do a song and dance about how much The Middleman is in the vein of Eureka, but I won't, 'cause I'm tired, and feeling a little down about last night's episode. So - one day, you will watch it, you will love it, and I will sit back and say, "TOLD YA."

I'm comfortable with that.

I feel as though there should be a community for well-educated people unable to find a good job but I think it'd be a really depressing community. Unless it was livened up with booze.

Can I join the GIPness?
