This is this

Looking for jobs... about as much fun as having the flu. Oh well. It is what it is.

Stanley, you see this? This is this.
-Robert DeNiro The Deer Hunter

I am expanding my search to nationwide. Wherever, however, whatever.  I was contacted the other day by a recruiter about a technical writing job with a company that looks very progressive. It's in Madison, Wisconsin and would require my moving there. Wherever, however, whatever.

YES or NO

Saw YES last night at the Beacon Theater - they were awesome. It was Pete, Kevin, Paul, Mark and I. Great show! It's great to see the old prog rock geezers jam out.  And old friends.        

Otherwise, things progress in normal ways. Same as it ever was. Goodnight and have a pleasant mañana.

enough rope

I can hardly bring myself to send out CVs today after being laid off 2 weeks ago. I am at the end of my rope. It was a horrible situation there and the director made it very clear she didn't like me. However, that's not much consolation at this point. 

But it's time to shake off the depression and get my CV out there again like I did last week and the week before.

Here Again

Sorry i've been away so long. It's been crazy. But repatriation is always a difficult process. I doubt i could survive it a third time. Hence forth, if i leave the USA again, i'd have to leave for good. But for right now, my focus is CT  but you never know what ten or fifteen years may bring. But for the past 8 months, it's been great to be home.

End of the Session

Music to grade by;

Emergent - Gordian Knot
Foxtrot - Genesis
Ghosts - Frequency Drift

Life is frenetic and chaotic, by the very fact that it is kinetic. 

I've had enough snow. I've had a enough of the peole i work for being so incompetent. 

The grade calculator (excel sheet) they gave me does not work for shit. I'll let them figure it out. I'll be done in 30 minutes and then i'm going out for a smoke.

And the best thing that you can do
Is take whatever comes to you
Because time flies
