Season Finales

So we watched the season finale of "Chuck" tonight, and I must say, I'm feeling as if my own sitcom/drama/reality show has been canceled.

Don't get the wrong idea, while I like "Chuck" a lot, my feelings have nothing to do with the show...it just seemed so fitting that at this time of year when shows are wrapping up their plot lines or creating new ones via the proverbial cliff hanger, my own plot line has stalled. A job that I had hoped for appears to have been filled. I understand that HR groups are probably getting really hit with a lot of resumes, but I miss the courtesy of a "thanks, but no thanks" letter or phone call. I'm thinking it's filled because it no longer appears on the company's website. I guess I could fool myself into thinking it was just a timing down for the posting, but I'm thinking...NOT!

I really, really, really need to get back to work...financially and personally. The thrill of being able to stay up late wore off a really long time ago, and I need to get back into a grownup guise again. That's not a slam against anyone who is taking care of a household and does not also have an outside-the-house job...this is me I'm talking about.

It's not even as if I'm getting any more or better sleep 'cause when I do sleep, I dream about various incarnations of work...sometimes mixing distant past jobs with the just-left job...help!
