Like mah sexy new icon?

Thanks to Ken Beach!

As most of you probably know, my standard way of dealing with terrible stress is to try and find something to DO about it.
So far I have:
  • applied for unemployment
  • applied for food stamps
  • updated my resume
  • updated my LinkedIn profile and requested a couple of recommendations
  • looked up info on a job that someone on Facebook sent me - it's just down the street so I go to apply tomorrow
  • made initial contact with a bankruptcy attorney (referred by the Chicago Bar Association)
  • did the dishes
  • polished my dress shoes
I think I'm finally spun down enough that I can get some sleep.

Gah what a day....

Love the new icon. Iz kool and sexy!

And you have been busy, which is excellent. Good luck with the job hunting.

Did finally break down late last night. Needed, but now I look all puffy and tired and NOT hire-worthy. So we shift to plan B - pick up copies of updated resume from local printy-place, get ink cartridge for printifying job and legal docs, and start up the job board postings. Also get a good stack of library books.

Initial phone consult with bankruptcy attorney is at 3, and it turns out that he's a 3rd degree LinkedIn connection through the organization that I did my condo board training with, which bodes well for his reliability.

Then with all ducks in suitable formation, go apply for that clerk position (I'm woefully overqualified but it's 3 blocks from the house so no commute costs) in person tomorrow morning.

Fingers suitably knotted!

That must make frocking terribly difficult
