Monday Morning

It's monday morning and I'm looking at this computer screen again.

This is my last week at this job, and I'm still wondering what the hell I'm going to do.

I haven't found "regular work" and nailing down freelance stuff is a little complicated, but I'm still working on it.  And yet I feel so stuck, so held down to everything.

J. moved back in with her parents this weekend, and I can't even muster the strength in a conversation to bitch and moan about it.  I've stopped caring about her on a profound level and know that I have my own shit to deal with that is probably just as fucked up.  I'm crawling on craigslist everyday in the hope that something will show up that I can just jump right into, but so far nothing.

I need to sit and do a resume, I need to start running all over town turning in applications, I need to, I need to, I need to...

But there is this inerta, that I can't seem to overcome.  There is this sitting here in my seat that I just can't seem to get over.  There is this horrible sensation that I will not be able to thrive.  I know that I can make it, that I can survive, but then I worry about the kids, and the apartment, and everything.  And it begins to paralize me.  It is like I have this fear of not being able to make it that is so significant that it paralizes me into inaction.

I need to get over it.

There is a job up today that I have technically already applied for, but I'm going to go in today and remind them that I did.  Tell them that I'm willing to take any pay, just tell them that I will do the job no matter what they want from me.

That is my plan.

I need to.

File under Virtue.
