Amazing Monday

Not.

Boy, did I sleep badly last night. I don't know what the problem was, but I woke up about eight times. I'm a chronic insomniac, I have trouble falling asleep, but normally once I am asleep, nothing short of a jackhammer bothers me.

Anyhow. I'm not accustomed to having my sleep disturbed and consequently, on those few occasions when I don’t sleep well, I don't have a lot of coping strategies. I'm just bitchy.

Anyhow. I finally got my resume done and today I'm searching the online sites for a job. I sent Coco a clear, well? hiring? not? e-mail on Friday but haven't heard back from her yet. (She's not he most e-mail friendly of all my friends and it usually takes her 3-4 days to answer an e-mail.)

On a more positive note, having wasted 4 weeks of my paid "notice" that I'm going to be unemployed, I decided I needed to spend these last two weeks actually looking for a job.

I even sent off a resume already this morning. I mean, I have zero expectation of hearing back from anyone, even though the position sounds like it's right up my alley, because there are so many thousands of people hunting for jobs on monter.com that employers are overwhelmed, but at least I made a step, right?

I checked the Denver newspaper sites. No jobs worth having.

Two steps. No progress.

Also, I'm bitter today because I got the e-mail confirming the dates for the next Escapade and if the universe doesn't come though with a job pretty soon, I'm going to have to cancel.

Again attempting to return to the positive side of life, I notice with amazement that it's not 12:45. Where has the day gone so far?

Beyond a 2:30 meeting (that will probably go 1-1/2 hours), my "to do" list today includes only two items:

Iron.

Put the Powerball out of its misery and buy a ticket for the next drawing! (I'm fairly certain that the jackpot has climbed to $340,000,000 because it's waiting for me to get me act together.) (On the other hand, any person or event waiting for me to get my act together is going to be waiting a while. I'm getting kind of old and it's never been known to happen yet.)

I don't feel good and I'm not happy today. I need a nap.

Maybe I should go get some lunch.
