When it's time to change...

judecorpI left work at about 1:15. I had finished every single little thing on my list from this morning, so I figured I might as well use some of those sick time hours since I feel like poop. With these charming sick hours, I have watched a documentary on homeless children in Romania, and have sent out more resumes. I still feel like poop, and am still swimming in snot and sinus pain, but I have a new concern - I'm losing my voice. The fantastic thing about this is that I have to go to court tomorrow morning! Oh, joy! I can't wait to go on the record! (Hello. I am your caseworker, Peter Brady.)
It's really bumming me out that this is the last week I can actually see people from Columbus, and yet I don't feel well enough to have much fun. I have to call
Ryan soon and I have no idea what we're going to do for our last ever Date Night, but it will probably involve me whining a lot. Or a milkshake. Perhaps both.
Jennifer got a call from a recruiter about an inside sales job that pays something like $50-$60K a year. Just hearing a number like that makes me poop my pants. Please, everyone, send your strongest, most positive job vibes her way!
That reminds me, this whole "recruiter" business just blows my mind. I mean, here I am, poring job banks for social service postings, sending my resume out to practically every community agency in the metro Boston area, and every so often I get a call. Jennifer has people calling /her/ and /then/ asking for her resume. What the heck is up with that??!? I wish there were headhunters for the social services. (HA! As if there would be money for paperclips, let alone hiring recruiters.) Every time she gets cold-called about a job she doesn't even know is available, I get more and more floored. Who knows? If she scores a $60K job I can pretty much take any job in the world and still make what we need to survive. And if she's /really/ good, maybe I'll even let her get cable. *wink*
Organizations I applied to today: City Year Boston, Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts, Wide Horizons for Children, and the Regional Center for Healthy Communities. I just want a /job/, people, that's all.

I filled in my information a long time ago--I think right after we learned FM was laying us off. I got a call about some sort of temp job from them a few months ago, and of course said no. Definitely worth your time, they don't charge you anything.
