Life Without Ed: Day 20

The trickle of the stream had turned into a torrent. Luckily, the rain had stopped. As we rounded the bend I stepped right into a giant puddle of water and mud filled my shoes. This search for a job often feels exactly like the squishing of my socks as Maggie and I turned and headed for home. It's frustrating. And leads so often turn into dead ends.

The obsessive checking of my email has replaced my obsessive munching on snacks. My fear is only that we will run out of money. I know eventually I will get an opportunity. But I hope the money doesn't run out first. And I don't want to take a job I know I'm not qualified for just to get a paycheck. So that being said, I'm going to an interview Wednesday for a job that I really have to think about deeply.

For dinner tonight I had a delicious vegan BLT with leftover curry. I also found a great new cookbook that I'm going to start working out of . . .but I'll say more about that another day. Tomorrow is weigh-in day!
