Bah.

I have sent out approximately ten applications for freelance writing gigs. I have received zero responses. Not even a "thanks for applying" rejection letter.

I searched for jobs yesterday in the Vindicator, to no avail. Apparently the only jobs that exist in Youngstown A) require Masters degress, or B) involve unskilled hard labor. I have the qualifications for neither of these categories.

Adam keeps telling me to calm down, learn to drive, and take a job at the paper. And we did go and get my new permit packet yesterday, so that's a start. But I hate the idea of waiting a few weeks to become employed. I could be making money NOW! That's what Adam is doing at the moment, actually-- today was his first day back at Exal, otherwise known as the Evil Aluminum Can Factory of Death. But while I hate his job, and I worry about him getting hurt, I can't go and criticize, because it's a job, and that's a rare bird around here.

Someone employ me. Now. Please please please?
