AND I HATE IT.
I haven't had much to talk about because my mind has been consumed by a total of two things: money (or lack thereof) and hockey. But somehow the subject of patience falls under the "money" category because I'm waiting for the day when I make wads of cash.

It's unfortunate that I've racked up some tens of thousands of dollars in student loans for something like a top-rate education that has literally gotten me nothing in return. It's more than unfortunate. It really, really sucks. My whole life, I believed I had to go to college to get a good job. Here I am, a shiny, new-ish degree in hand, and I'm jobless (more or less), while my friends who don't have college degrees are making more money than I am and receiving benefits (of which I have none) at their full-time jobs (of which I also obviously have none). I'm not saying they don't deserve those jobs--they do! I'm proud of them, and I'm glad they have those jobs! All I'm saying is I thought that with a degree I'd be a desirable candidate for SOME kind of job that earns me more than minimum-wage, even if it is JUST a liberal arts degree.
Frustrated and impatient. That's how I feel.
Well you're definitely not alone on that one. PLENTY of people with degrees are still looking for jobs. I guess that's why they're calling this a recession...

I know you said earlier that Madison is not for you, but you should TOTALLY DO IT! I sent James the link too, so he might be applying. Maybe we can get a whole herd of Newdos living together in Wisconsin after some time (It'll be much better than that sounds).
