Moping

I started out with good intentions but moping seems to be getting the best of me. Before being laid off, when just the thought of being laid off was a fog lingering around the office, I told myself it wouldn't be so bad. I thought off all the things I could do with my free time.

I was going to be one of those morning joggers. You know the type - the lady you pass on your drive into work, looking fabulous in her little Nike outfit (complete with matching shoes) just running along the street. I thought, she must not have a job, and I thought I could be her...if I didn't have a job. Well, now I don't have a job. The thing is, I don't like getting out of bed, it would take to much effort to match my clothes, let alone run, and why start all this today when I have nothing to do tomorrow? I'm going to save that dream for another day...

I have currently been preoccupied with eating Doritos, both the ones in the bag and those that land on my chest, as I lay on the sofa in my pajamas watching what appears to be daytime television. I didn't realise how horrible it really was (daytime television). Yesterday Maury had a show and the whole premise was to guess if these scantly dressed guests were male or female. WTF?

On a positive note, I did manage to make it down to MI Works, which I thought was the unemployment office?! It's not. So after I left there I went to the real unemployment office and met a lady named Tina who was super friendly and very helpful.
