I've been fairly ill for the past...eh, week or so. It's the stuff everybody gets around this time of year; the awful sinus congestion and headache plus herd of elephants clogging up your chest that's not quite bad enough to warrant a trip to the doctor. Most people call it The Crud; in my case it's gotten an order of magnitude or so worse, enough to dub it The Ass, like a tropical storm turning into a hurricane. Massive doses of just about every OTC concoction available have been consumed. I discovered an old albuterol inhaler in the linen/medicine closet, too. That thing's great.
Heidi first brought The Ass home with her a couple of weeks ago, and she's pretty much over it now. Early last week, poor Evan caught it, but luckily, it blew through him and into me in about a day or so. There's nothing in the world more pathetic than a sick baby.
In between coughing jags and sad, self-pitying moans, I've been looking at job sites, in hopes of minimizing the downtime between when this current project at AmFam ends and the next thing I find. So far, I've sent resumes in for:
- A tech-support monkey for a school district
- An electronic publishing gig eerily similar to the one I used to have
- 2 Photoshop/Quark hamster jobs
Meh. I've noticed that, while the economy is generally down in the dumps right now, temp agencies and staffing firms are doing very, very well. Which totally makes sense.Current Mood:  sore |
