Day 4 arms of steel, lv 3 and also went to meet gym friends. Gave myself a pep talk on Instagram.

Good thing, too. Bc at 730pm I get an email that I didn't get the support job. I guess their corporate culture isn't as awesome about never working late as I was told? /sourgrapes. Applied for 2 similar things and am drinking hot cocoa w burbon in.

I'm sorry to hear about the job.😿

Bummer about the job. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that you get the other one!

Well, that’s sucky😣But you wouldn’t wanna be working til 7:30pm, anyway, so on to the next one!

Sorry to hear about the job, heres to hoping it all works out

That sucks, but keep on, the right job will come. Hugs.

I'm sorry you didn't get the job Good luck with the other applications!

Meh about the job
Here's to better things ahead!

The support here is awesome, seriously.

Idk what I'd do without the hive, you guys and gals are quite often my lifeline of late.

I went to the store today for garbage bags and bought 70$ worth of semi random groceries when I already have ingredients in my fucking house. Then I proceeded to eat nothing except watermelon and not enough coffee until 1pm. I just did not want to human today. I did (I think) win my fight with NY state unemployment site, tho. Maybe. I hope. I might get some money before next month's bills come, or I might have to use my savings account... but that's why there's a savings account right? Right. WHEN it eventually works (I may well have to do friendly dinosaur on their asses) I will get back pay and I can put it back.

Started my 'rin standard "think about a project for a day or 2 before doing it" for teaching fellowship interview prep, and found a few more tech jobs to apply to. Something will fall into place, I just need to keep my head up and my eyes open.

In "alternate ways this story could end" I came up with a hilarious free marketing idea. Since I've nearly got novella #2 in the bag, and just selling to bees and fb friends is not going to get me best seller status, I've been trying to think of how to find a wider audience. Romance doesn't really have a short story tradition/market. But. I have written a few shorts in this "universe" that fall more fully into the "urban fantasy" genre. I also see room to write some shorts that swing all the which swing (pun possibly intended) all the way over to erotica. Both of those genres have an audience for short stories and plenty of places which publish such. So... project.

Anyway. I carted groceries then did my Arms of Steel while sitting on couch in a fit of "I can't even but I know I ought to".
