Today could have been better. Feeling particularly useless, depressed and unsettled, I didn't even go out to food-shop and get my passport photos done today. The law of averages says I'll have to hear back from some potential employers this coming week; in the meantime I'm trying my darndest to relax and enjoy my time off as much as I can. As I come out of the flu period I'm once more keeping up with most of my reading, and can therefore wish my "blogfather" Neil Gaiman a happy seventh blogiversary on the actual day. Given recent political goings-on, I've also been particularly grateful for two posts at the Group News Blog, one from Jesse Wendel about how he hopes Democrats stop the circular firing squad and get it together by the time there's a nominee because, when you get right down to it, we have an embarrassment of riches and the top two candidates' positions really aren't that far from one enother; and the other from Sara Robinson about institutionalized sexism at a particular cable news network (I also liked what Melissa observed about all this). And, of course, by all indications it appears the writers' strike may be resolved soon; can a resolution of my own employment situation be far behind? It's all positive from here on out, I'm sure. On the other hand, my tummy still hurts:
