SUNDAY UPDATE MANIA
Alright, so I'm on extended unemployment now, which means that I report to the feds, who want 4 job contacts a week, and they want em NOW. I'm not really sure how to explain that my contacts were all at the same company, since they don't care about their names. I'm tempted to invent slightly different company names for each person I had to talk to separately, since there are enough for two weeks of filing.

I probably won't be on benefits for long. I'll get a job and that will be that. Kris quit his job, which is good, because he didn't really like being in the getting-fucked-in-the-ass business. We're both in the "getting another job" business, which is relatively ok.

Uh, what else to post... oh, I totally got presents!
Brett got me White Noise, by Don DeLillo. A good book. Won the national book award!

Ed got me How to solve It, by G. Polya. A little book about problem solving. Pink!

Helen's Aunt got me a Barnes and Noble gift card.
I can get mochas there while I read books without buying them!

Helen got me Metroid Prime, by Retro Studios. So much for finding a job this year!

dear mr. andr00,

how are you doing? if you need frivolous contacts, for the purpose of padding your unemployment efforts, what you may do is take the sunday paper and send resumes for positions that there is no way in hell that you will even be considered. executive vp. sysops manager. god.. not that you couldn't perform these jobs in an admirable fashion. but, while you do focus sincere effort on finding a decent situation for yourself, you won't accidentally apply for a helljob.

i bid you good luck, sir.
sr. d.
