I am unbearably lame
So, as I sit here, staring at the LCD on loan from Furby (thanks!) I’m slowly realizing that I’m really, really lame. Many of my friends are camped out at Beta’s place, trying to get some shut-eye before the Great Quakecon Voyage begins really, really early this morning. I really, really want to go with them, to toss my laptop bag and a few clothes in my car and tear ass to Texas.
I am not going.
Why? Several reasons. Poorness, being the first; desperation to get a job being the second. The job that sorta fell into my lap appears to have fallen through my lap and onto the floor and made one helluva mess. The guy that I’m supposed to be talking to in HR won’t call me back. I’m not sure what to do, although I’m pretty sure that it ends with me going down there tomorrow and trying to get some answers as to what’s going on. The end result will be, inevitably, that I will not get the job, because good things simply don’t happen to me, ever.
So, what am I going to do? Go back to school, I guess - no point in stopping now, unless someone’s willing to give me a substantial incentive. I’ll be stuck back in TFC early enough as is, with only 2-2.5 years left in my degree program. Might as well go through the whole thing, even if I still won’t be able to get a job here. Not like it’s gonna change the status quo much.
Wow, I’m really depressed.
