Or, you know, not.

In today's news, Buehler, who declared on Friday "I can't do it without you" is now refusing to commit to any projects he'd like me to do during the next month.

Bernie, who wanted me 10-15 hours a week on Thursday, decided today that we'll "play it by ear" and they'll call me whenever they have 4-5 hours of stuff lined up that I can do.

I've cleaned the table by my chair in the living room, the piles of papers stacked on the bookshelf on the other side of me, the drafting table piled with papers in my bedroom, and the dining room table, creating a huge bag o'unnecessary paper that can now be thrown out.

I've gone through my closet and pulled out all of the stuff I never wear and never will wear and made a pile for Goodwill.

I've done four loads of laundry and run the dishwasher.

Also I had a shower and went out to lunch.

At least so far, six hours into my stretch of unemployment, it can't be said that I'm wasting my time.

I still have to scrub the heck out of the kitchen (a thing that hasn't been done really thoroughly in months) and the bathroom. I have to vacuum, and dust everything, including taking books off of bookshelves, not just dusting around them. T

hose are the tasks I've set for myself this week, along with going to the post office (things to mail, packages to pick up), gassing up my car (the price of gas has dropped 30 cents!) and...there was something else.

What was it?

Oh. Yeah. Look for a job.

And! Thanks to the kindness of that Fandom Goddess, torch, I have a new episode of Yami No Matsuei to watch today! On that note, I think I'll stop doing "chores" for a while and sit down and rewatch all the episodes I have, from the beginning.

Unemployment doesn't suck...until you run out of money. So far, one day into it, I have to say it's been a productive, enjoyable experience.

P.S. Okay, I didn't even get this posted before I got an IM from Buehler. I'm working tomorrow. So much for being a lady of leisure....
