Day 7 of my new life comes to a close. I've been taking things easy - getting things done, but at a leisurely pace. The shining sun is a wonder to enjoy, especially after the months of being cooped up in The Cave, as we labelled our windowless office. The road of destiny stretches on before me; the deep blue sky and white-capped mountains eagerly beckon me.

The "career counsellors" the ex is so magnanimously funding, beside being so depressingly useless, are extremely surprised at my attitude. I had hoped that this facility made available to me would prove at least moderately useful in my hunt for new employment, but after two meetings I have given up any optimism of real aid from that quarter.

So, it's up to me alone - really, how could it be otherwise? I'm not attempting to play the martyr, though there is a small sardonic smile playing at the corners of my lips. Actually, I'm totally fine with it - I really only expected to rely upon myself. Am I managing to convey my honesty here, or is it all coming out sounding pouty? I TRULY DON'T MEAN IT THAT WAY!

LoL. "Dig up, stupid!"

Tell ya what - I'll distract you now with some furry feline fotos; enjoy Ralph's curious Sweetie.
