Wednesday:
New year, new beginning? Nah it is just another day that blends into all other days, one year into another. The illusion of "New" didn't work this year. All quiet on the western front, or rather the UES. Had a nice date that lasted 3 days! Cozy to just lie around and do nothing with someone else for a change.
I have now started my annual Lent, 40 days without alcohol and cigarettes. So far this is the 3rd day and so far sort of good. I screwed up on the first day when I went on a stupid job interview and then to lunch with a friend and accidentally drank almost a whole glass of wine before I remembered I wasn't supposed to, yikes, I felt terribly guilty, but hey no harm done I am back in deprivation land.
I had a job interview on Monday which was total bullshit, they have no money and wanted to know if I would be willing to make 1/2 of what I used to make!!! I think not, jeez, the nerve! I then applied to another place for which I am totally qualified and they offered the same ridiculous salary! Is the job marked so bad that people are expected to live on $35,000 a year! in NYC!? It is totally insane. I am a professional and an adult, only someone in college being supported by their parents can hope to live on that.
I am pinning my hopes on another interview tomorrow, they at least sound more flexible. Just have to keep trying I guess. I am still thinking I may have to move to Europe to get a job.
I keep having revenge fantasy dreams about my former boss, I think it helps because I always feel so much happier when I wake up.
