Frustration doesn't grow on trees, you know!

No, it must be coaxed, and carefully husbanded so that one day it will grow into a great big mushrooming cloud of despair. Had a very bad day. Unfortunately, my employment plans, which looked so rosy last week, have gone super-kablooey. I hate it when sure-things go kablooey. Have I become... (I hate to say it) -gulp- "unemployable"? Eeee gads, Noooo!! Which employment dieties did I tick off to deserve this? Was I too proud (thus intended by the gods to be destroyed)? Or was it just my haircut?What does a guy have to do to get a job in this country? I'm thinking about going to Mexico, and then sneaking back across the border (at least those guys seem to be able to find work). I feel yuckily depressed right now. Must... fight... depression... KHAN!!!!!!!!

Actually, since I wrote this things have (unsurprisingly) evened out, and I'm back to my good ol' semi-cheerful optimistic self. I'm still in the running for some other positions (down, but not out... yet.). Who knows? Maybe I'll get lucky in the next few weeks, eh? However, I'm sure that's what an gambliholic tells themselves on the eighteenth-hundred time they pull the lever on that slot machine in Atlantic City...
Well, can't win if you don't play, right? I'm bound to get a job one of theses days (that's what my statistics teacher told, at least).
Ganbatte!!

Plus, I might add, just seeing this picture of Shatner screaming out "KHAN!!!!" reminds me that things could be a heck of a lot worse...

Clearly the word inexplicable was invented for this very situation.

I just don't get it.

At all.

If William Shatner can find gainful employment over there, well...
