I Feel

that life is wandering away, but in slow motion. I am very aware of where I am right now and where I should be and to a very limited extent, where I could be in the coming year. But beyond that, it's really cloudy. When I look down the road I can actually see that I'm going to finish grad school for instance. But then what? Our job market sucks and I wonder about long term employment where I am at too. The job market right now is pretty shitty and is it going to get better by then? I guess I'm feeling pessimistic at heart. I've seen many of the folks I used to work with have been unemployed for nearly 9 months and wonder how they are keeping afloat. Not just financially, but emotionally too. Most of them I think will move away from here as a whole to where they will find work. Will I have to as well?
Anyway, that's how I feel right now.
