I feel like shit, and I've had a week to match.

The job search continues. I plan on moving to the DC area next year, and I need some sort of work experience in an office before I move out there, otherwise I'm going to be boned. I've been to staffing agencies, applied to administrative assistant and other low-level clerical jobs (what few there are here in Rural Illinois), and gotten no luck. I've got awards and recommendations from my previous job history, the staffing agencies are always impressed, but nothing.

On top of that unwanted feeling, I tried again to talk to a particular friend last night. It's been about four months since actually had a conversation. Last one we had wasn't strange or odd in any way. I send a quick "What's up" about a month ago and got no reply, and did the same thing last night. I hate how Facebook handles messages. I end up refreshing, waiting for the "Seen" status, but it never comes. I don't know what I did wrong, but apparently I can't talk to him, which sucks since I've spent the better part of the year trying to figure out how to. A weird thought, given he spent the last year or two telling me I could talk to him any time, and trying to show me how friends actually communicate.

I'm tired. Unwanted by the majority of my friends and apparently every employer within a drivable hour radius. On an unrelated note, I want to rewrite the last four seasons of the West Wing.
