I started this blog over two years ago when I landed my first 'real' job out of college. Needless to say, when I lost that job, the blog died. Well, I am back. Since then I've started my own hodgepodge of businesses and blogs for each. But I want something personal where I can share the ups and downs of not having steady work. For those of you out there suffering in the disaster we call our economy I hope that by reading this you find you are not alone and there is always hope.

Day of Commercials
Lately I have been doing a lot of reading. It is far better to me than watching TV which is the alternative in my situation. I guess for about a week I watched TV pretty regularly and then stopped cold turkey. Today I discovered that that one week has fried my brain cells probably beyond repair. Why do I figure that? Well I am reading along today and comprehending what I am reading, but my brain is also thinking about something else. It's strange how we can think of more than one thing at a time. So I stop reading to listen to my thoughts. Guess what is was? A commercial for a free credit report. I was singing the jingle and even had the phone number down. The other morning I woke up with a jingle for a fast cash service playing in my thoughts like a record on repeat. I don't know why these things just appear out of the blue, but it is kind of annoying. I'm banning the TV from my life... at leat commercial TV. Anything that I can fast forward through the commercials will be just fine to watch.
