Woke up just after John left for work, got a shower, ate breakfast, started job hunting. I called an old recruiter and talked to her for a long time. I got a few other recruiters and set up appointments for reactivation (for tomorrow morning). I looked on the job sites all day for Project Manager, …

Living Another’s Life
I can’t believe I’m on the hunt for a new job. There are so few opportunities out there right now. I searched for hours today and came up very short. I applied to a few, but I really had hoped to see more listings for Project / Operations Managers. Interestingly enough, I’m not stressed yet. …

This Economy Sucks, McCain!
Once again, I’ve been laid off. This is twice in one year. Jobs are tight, people aren’t spending as much money on Disney toys or concert tickets these days. I know I’m a smart, talented, loyal project manager; but, I am subject to the repercussions of economic failure – same as everyone else! Zigabid has …

Wish Distress Would Hurry Up and Become Destress
As I sat in the lounge watching CNN at lunch, I felt a sense of overwhelming anxiety build up in me. 1. a hurricane is heading towards Florida. Many of my friends and family live there. There are wildlife preserves and zoos there. My hometown is there. The Everglades is there. Lots of great things …

Uh Oh!
1. I think I’m addicted to commenting on the Cafferty File, which gets me all fired up and angry about things! 2. Even more troubling, a 4,500 yr old ice shelf broke off in the Arctic in Northern Canada! This is NOT good! 🙁

Lieberman & PUMA
http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/09/03/rnc.democrat.reaction/index.html is a good article from CNN that focuses on the inaccuracies of Lieberman’s speech. I was very disappointed. This man ran with Gore! How could he support the ideals of Democracy, but throw his vote, words and supporters behind McCain/Palin? They stand for everything he ran against in 2000! Makes me really sad to …

A Weekend of No Labor
It’s nice to have 3-day weekends once in a while. In fact, I’d like one every weekend; but, that’s not the world I live in. At the start of the weekend, I wasn’t feeling to great… a slight sore throat. Took it easy and rested a bit. I slept in on Saturday morning too. John …
