Tomorrow my work finishes.

Now I need to find another job to fill the void between now and August.

so this looks delicious.

Edit: It's tempting to think of oneself as a victim and the sympathetic protagonist of a story. It'd be so easy to think of myself as a very lonely, unhappy person who life has dealt some hard blows to, someone who just deserves a good turn of fortune.

But I don't believe in a fortune that turns according to people's merit anyway, and even if I did, I am not sure it should for me. My loneliness is largely of my own design. Arrogant, judgmental person who deliberately chose self-isolating paths in life. No shit you're lonely. I am so mean to people- it is hard to hold back deprecating comments or sniff disapprovingly at their choices in life. Even when I do this admirably, the words are suppressed, but the thoughts are not. Suppressing the bile is pointless if you start to hate the people. I will find someone I can tolerate, but even then, it's up in the air why they'd tolerate me. I hope to improve a lot this summer. Every single night is like this and it has to stop.

Gary Williams -- the animated coach who helped resurrect Maryland men's basketball and led the team to its first national championship in 2002 -- stunned players and the university community by abruptly retiring Thursday after 22 seasons at his alma mater.

rubbish man?

A pretty hard to get and in demand job that.

No, seriously. The pay is apparently rather great for unskilled labour and you get home pretty early.

Huh.  That sucks.  No reasons given at all?

I really wasn't joking.  I value the work of our blue collar brethren.

He said he's 66 years old, and he'd be past retirement age in any other line of work.  Fair enuff.

Yeah, that's as good a reason as any.

Guy I knew makes big bucks as a specialist in cleaning out apartments of folks who have been evicted.

Apparently, a truly gruesome job requiring a strong stomach - but the pay is great, and he's his own boss ...

Unless you're the driver.

Spent the day fishing.  Caught many fishes.  Mostly crappie and sunfish.
