OK so I tried to remain positive through the days after being laid-off, but when you get rejection after rejection after rejection, your self esteem starts to take a hit.
I somehow managed to be one of the lucky one, I was only out of work for three months. I have friends and family who are working on six months, and I know of many people who have been looking for 9-12 months. I know families who are split apart because one got a job in another state and they felt they had to take it.
This Map shows the scary reality of the recession; I knew it was bad but daaaamn.

Anyway on to happier stuff... I gots a job!!! I will be doing business analytics for a large ISP here in Seattle. The pay is good, the hours will be long, and it sounds like I can telecommute after a while. Spoiled I am...
On the lighter brighter side, My house is basically clean, my toenails are painted pink, and (just for my cousin) I am listening to Bon Jovi -"Livin' on a Prayer". Life is good, my karma is clean, I have a loving family, a husband who loves to tease and spoil me, and the diet is even going good.
I am going to go play some Lego Indiana Jones :)
Enjoy Life's Adventures!
