I Swear I'm Alive.

Due in part to my unemployment, I've been quite the hermit lately. Or have I? I've actually attempted to get people together, but our schedules just haven't meshed well lately. We've all been out of town for various reasons. Some people just get caught up in their lives and don't realize they've neglected anyone. I'm trying to avoid that myself. At least being jobless has given me time to catch up with many of my old friends from back home. But I need to see my Nashville people! I'm hoping that this weekend will change that and I can see my Nashville loves whom I have missed dearly this last month. That and I'm getting tired of talking to my dog. I need more response than he gives me and I can only talk to myself so much. But I do feel I've been more of a recluse than usual and I'm hoping I can fix that, or at least give it a little tweak. Granted, I don't really have money to throw around, but I certainly don't mind spending it on dinner for the girls' night out or bringing treats to movie night. Luckily (perhaps the wrong word choice), most of my friends are just as poor as me (!!) and would rather have a cheap way to get together just to spend time with one another. That's what it's about anyways. M, C, and I can sit around and bullshit for hours about nothing, and that's why they're my favorites. We don't really need an excuse to get together, or an expensive restaurant to do so.
I feel like I have news, but that would make me a liar. Aside from applying for 15 jobs a day and watching terrible "Charmed" reruns, I really don't have a lot going on. The Couch to 5K is going fine, though I'm still on Week 1 so I don't have a lot to report besides the gasping for air and incessant need to sit down after ten minutes (that'd be my lazy side).
Dear god, I'm so boring. I suddenly feel like I'm 15 again with nothing interesting to say. I've been considering volunteering somewhere, but then I remember that I spend most of my days in front of the computer trying to be somewhere that wants to pay me. And those days go by FAST. It's already nearly June? When did that happen? As of last week, I've been living in Nashville for 2 years, and I'm in the exact same situation I was in when I moved here--jobless! At least I have friends to get me through this round. Thanks to the 3 day weekend, I definitely have no idea what day it is anymore. I think I'm keeping track based on my spreadsheet of job applications. Gah. I have resumes I need to snail mail to places. Obviously you can see what's consuming what little brain activity I have today. Next post will be more interesting, promise.
