In a way, I guess! Though it's mean of me to say so.

I'm really struggling with my pride lately. I mean...I haven't written to some people back home in awhile because they don't understand how I could not have found something...anything by now. And I think about what the guys at the office are likely saying if anyone calls about references now, this late in the game.

Even the girl who's probably my closest friend...I hardly ever sign onto AIM anymore because she doesn't understand how I could really be trying to find a job and not finding one right off, and keeps asking me what's the big deal, though not in so many words. And I'm well aware that if I had a more forceful personality, I might.

I haven't even been able to get a retail, five something an hour job.
