Post It

I have been really slacking in the blogging department lately.

Mostly what I have been doing is job hunting.

One would think that once you graduate that you would have a job 

to help pay off student loans.

However, all that has happened for me is that

I am everyone's second choice.

I am tired of coming in second.

I want to be first for once.

And my life experience tells me that I will always come in second

So I am having a hard time seeing the glass half full

instead of half empty

And each passing interview confirms it anew for me

And really? Who cares if I can label the diamond

that defines Comp Guidance?

In real life I can look that up

But wouldn't you rather I knew how to deal with 

a suicidal teen, or change your schedule

or know what you have left to take to graduate

or how to help you with your grief and pain?

And I am a dang good counselor

So hire me already.

That and a bunch of stupid life/family issues are really draining me.

I hate when someone else's choices cause hurt and pain and fear

for me and my kids.

And that those choices leave me with a choice between

bad and worse.

Stupid.

But-

I did get a summer job.

I will be working at Target as a cashier.

So

Can I help you find something?

Did you find everything today?

Thank you for shopping at Target and have a nice day.

My cheeks hurt just thinking about it.

So I am going to try to blog a bit more.

I stole this 30 day blog list from my niece

I think I'll try it anyway for the month of June

So if I pull it off 

here is a "menu" of what you can look forward to.

Maybe.

If I'm not too tired.
