I got a car a few days ago. It's a green Subaru Legacy. I love Subarus. :) Now I'm happy because I can go places. Consequently, I've finally started seriously applying for jobs. (I was only kind-of looking before.)
I found a couple of freelance editing jobs (yeah, I know, I should have been applying to them while I didn't have a car, but the thought never occurred to me), but I'm really leery about working for someone I've never seen and probably never will see. I especially don't want to send them my personal information, like credit card number and bank information, which they say they require to pay me and to report for tax purposes. I don't like it. Maybe I should apply to McDonald's.
They gave me a church calling last week. Now I'm the new Wolf Den Leader in the Cub Scouts. I wasn't happy about it at first because I kind of wanted to teach the young women stuff, but then I realized that teenage girls are silly broads that don't want to learn how to be independent anyway. Also, if I told the leaders in the Young Women my ideas and they said, "Oh no, we need to teach these girls to be more spiritual, so we can only ever discuss eternal marriage," then I'd probably get really mad.
Besides, little boys like juggling. I can juggle.
The other day, I was talking with a friend of mine who I taught to juggle. Apparently he's been getting so many gigs as a clown at birthday parties that he's starting his own business now. I'm so proud!

Good luck with the job search. You don't want to end up like Maugham's Wilson (in his short story, "The Lotus-Eater", one of my favorites).
