Still hanging in there. I'm spending most of my time feeling sorry for myself, instead of being constructive and volunteering, being useful, etc. I wish I could divert my energy into being funny and ironic, like getupgrrl, leery polyp, etc., but I don't seem to be able to do that at this point (OK, I could NEVER be that funny, but a chick can dream...). It's just hard to know where to turn next. I was going to take a Publisher class this week, but one of the centers that offers it had bad info on its website, and that doesn't really inspire confidence. That center and a couple of others have classes the first week of May. No one around here wants to start anything the last week of April. Because, that's the week before Derby, and my word, if that isn't sacred here. (Louisville, in case you haven't figured that out). This community revolves around the Kentucky Derby. Derby, Derby, Derby!!!! And I live less than 2 miles from Churchill Downs. That was where I was hoping to get a job a couple of months ago. But noooooo. I never even went to the Derby until I worked in radio, and I went twice, only because of work. I do enjoy going to the races now and then, but I don't like crowds or parking, or driving in lots of traffic. If anyone offered me a free ticket and a chauffeured ride, I probably wouldn't say no, but it's more fun to go to a party, and I'm planning to be at one that day. Maybe I'll get a job after it's over. Never say never.
