I got laid off today.

I should have seen it coming. I should have drawn some conclusions from the fact that things have been much too slow, for far too long. I should have realized that it was just too good to be true - getting paid for swinging around in my comfy office chair, checking private email, browsing flist and reading slash. It just couldn't last, could it, eh?

Well, it's over now. Time to get reacquainted with the harsh reality of an unstable job market.

And no, I am not telling my parents. Not yet, anyway. My mum is just going to freak out. Which actually stresses me more than the fact of being unemployed per se. Funny, isn't it? Well, thank you, mother, for being the main stress factor of my existence. Again.

In other news, I slept about 4 hours last night - and yet have been unable so far to actually relax enough to take a nap. So I guess I'll go to bed now. For whatever it's worth.

At least I don't have to get up early tomorrow. Woohoo. There are good sides to everything. *snort*

Oh, dear! My very best wishes for you to find a new job againm and fast! This is truly awful! Especially the 'kind' way they told you about it (grinds teeth). Truly lovely! -NOT.

Hugs you and wishes you the best!

Thank you so much!:) As for the 'kindness' - well, that's the world we live in...

At least I have friends who actually care, and that helps a lot. *hugs back*
