I figure that if I get laid off I'll hunt down some local insurance companies that use our program and see if they'd like a consultant. Did your job involve contact with anyone outside your company that might be interested?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have no skills that anyone wants to pay for

Zen, tell me to delete if this is too detailed, but you were a journal editor, right? Talk to Steph about remote editing work. I know she's in medical editing, which is somewhat different, but still.

Sorry for pointing out the obvious, then. I just really don't think you're unemployable, and I want you to get a fabulous new job and rub it in the faces of your former employers.

No, it was a good idea! I was just kind of scarce yesterday and today.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

you were a journal editor, right?

I was. I have mad skillz. Steph gave me some leads, thank you Steph!, and another friend of mine is talking to me right now about doing some freelance work. I'll be okay, I'm sure, I'm just...still trying not to panic.

I just really don't think you're unemployable, and I want you to get a fabulous new job and rub it in the faces of your former employers.

I also want this! My sister reminded me how stressed out the job made me; she thinks I'm better off finding something else anyway.

I think you have a really good chance of landing somewhere you are happier, for sure. You do have mad skillz!

I fucked up again, this time with the dinner I made badly. I hate being a shit person. I hate being me.
