On Unemployment

Well I've reached that stage in unemployment (seven weeks or so), where I think it's a good idea to create my own blog. I've always resisted the idea of blogging, because it struck me as the ultimate in narcissism -- especially amongst people of my generation. However, upon reflection I feel like it could actually serve as a useful outlet for my energy as I continue my job search. At present my day consists of bothering people via Gchat, badgering employed friends to have lunch with me, reading various newspapers online, reading the occasional book, and a healthy regimen of Law & Order episodes. So with that said, I'll be posting fairly regularly over the next several weeks.
