One of my crappiest summers?

This summer may probably be my worst summer. Last summer may have been hit or miss but I was working off and on as a factchecker at least yet I seemed to be really broke back then. I haven’t been working since June ended and as I a result of wasted repairs on my car, no money to travel like I wanted to. Now the car is grounded indefinitely because I’m not wasting anymore money on it. As I look over these legal proofreading docs my friend lent me I am searching my head and trying to figure out how I will pay for this class which I am told is well worth paying for.

But with job hunting comes free time, which has become devoted to making trips to a number of barnes and nobles café’s and getting addicted to iced frappuccino. It’s disturbing because I hate coffee but find myself getting their different flavors with a shot of espresso whenever I go in there. I must wean myself from it soon.

I have started three stories since July and finished none. But I have gotten more 5 pages written for each I say.

But seriously, I am really concerned about not finding a job yet5, temp, part time, or otherwise. And wish ot have something so I can find a place of my own to live.

Ima tell you what happened to me...
My mother convinced me to do a novena (I think that how you spell it) Some lingering remanants of her catholic upbringing...mind you Im not into the church thing nor was I raise on it. But in light of my aggitated circumstances she told me to make one. This required me to go to the catholic church for nine days, donate my 50 cents, light a candle and pray for what I want/need. I said to myself it couldnt hurt and did so with her.

A month later I've got the apartment I didnt think I could or would get, and a cool as job workin at a museum wheras it's been 5 years here in the south without ever having landed a permanent job let alon one that had anything to do with art. Granted I prayed for money to go to school in the fall and I didnt get that...but 2 outta 3 works for me.

Don't give up. Never ever ever give up.
