I don't know how i feel about this whole unemployment thing. On the one hand, I am free to make stuff, work with other peopel in a clooective manner and hopefully make enought money to feed myself. I don't have to work a shitty job, sucking up to people I don't like, an dI have time to read. On the other hand, if I dont' make soem money, going to Burning Man is going to be really difficult.

I applied for a few restaurant jobs today. I'm averaging 2-3 applications/resumes a day. It's not as high as some people I know, but not too bad. I haven't heard from anyone though. I've volunteered my time at a few leftist media publications, so hopefully I'll get to help out with those, and then, even if I'm not getting paid, I won't feel like such a bum.

I feel kinda bad cause I sort of mandated this mornign that my boyfriend not go on a camping trip with his work. I didn't really want him to go casue seeing him everyday helps me not get so depressed while I'm sitting here on my ass. But I didn't really mean to mandate it. eh shouldn't let me become his personal dictator quite so easily. It loses its fun.

I'm going to go decorate for a party this weekend. Being involved ina music collective makes is great right now. I'm busy with something that I feel is worthwhile. And while I'm not making any money off of it, there tends to be free food at all the meetings.
