Being unemployed really, really sucks. I don't see how people can stand being in this state for very long. It's been thee weeks since my last day and I'm going CRAZY! My new job is out there, I just need to find it. I have skills that want to be used.
I have decided I am NOT doing this freelance thing. Not right now, anyway. I still want to own my own business of some kind, but the time is not right. I really need the stability and security of full time job. Come on, employers, you want me!
Reading magazines and counting sheep to pass the time away
Hoping that tomorrow's gonna bring a smile back home again
Images of palm trees swaying in the wind on South Beach
Takes me back to better days, Summer rays, the Everglades in June
My brain, my poor brain
My brain, my poor brain
I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia
Flying high in golden skies, I'm flicking channels in my mind
Finding my utopia a different chapter in a book
Thinking back to younger days as I escape in Cooper's Break
It takes me back to '84 the future's knocking at my door
My brain, my poor brain
My brain, my poor brain
I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia
I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia
Turning off a switch inside me, Leaving all the stress behind me
Flying over streams and houses, Passing over the Wye Valley
It takes me back to '84 the future's knocking at my door
My brain, my poor brain
I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia
I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia
I'm drinking myself to sleep again, Nightnurse pills to keep me sane
Drinking myself to sleep again, Insomnia.
So, this was my first year participating in Blogathon. I've been aware of the event and even followed a few blogs last year. I was in no financial shape to pledge then and, except for a couple of small pledges I made, I wasn't really in a shape to help financially this year, either. That is a situation I plan to remedy for next year. There were many great organizations that I would've loved to have given something to.
I know I don't have that many regular readers and a good majority of you did support me. Thanks again, Everyone! (You should be getting your emails now from Blogathon organizers reminding you to fulfill your pledges).
For the rest of you, in an effort to have an even bigger success next year, I'm curious (leave a comment, anonymously if you wish):
If you didn't support anyone in the Blogathon, why not?
If you didn't support me, but did support someone else, why? Was it my choice of charity? What type of charity did you support?
Did you want to support me, but are not computer literate enough for the whole signup process?
If you couldn't this year, but would like to support me next year, would you like me to send you an email?
Any information you would be willing to share regarding any of the pledging process I would greatly appreciated. I'm not sure if I will have the same chairty or not. It all depends on what the universe decides to deal me at that time. I do know that if I am physically able, I will do it. The date has been announced and it July 28, 2007. Mark your caldendars!
