The sad sap

Sad saps annoy me. I mean, how much can you bitch, moan, and whine about the same thing without ever doing anything about it? I don't want to be that person! Yet I fear that I am. I'd like to just think that right now, I'm completely stuck. I promise to get out of this funk and do something. Promise! Just like I promise to wear my retainers after Braces Round Three is over.

But today, I just feel pathetic.

Here's a picture of me all smiley to off-set today's depression:




You see, a few years ago, a bunch of people from my ex-company, the Big G, jumped ship to work at FB. Well, with today's IPO, several people I know made a crap ton of money. And here I am, unemployed, unable to get a job at FB despite knowing the COO, no prospects, doctors telling me I can't work right now, and well, I feel just a wee-bit pathetic.


Signing Off,
The Sad Sap

  1. Just because they say you can't work doesn't mean you can't do something. You're crafty, what about making some art to sell on etsy. Maybe you can find a part-time job or do some volunteer work. Something to keep you occupied, stave off the depressive thoughts.

  2. It was just a rough(er) day yesterday with the news. I'm feeling better today.

    As far as selling on etsy, I don't think my stuff would sell!

  3. I love you, boo. I don't think you're a sap. (And when I see sap, I automatically think: http://assets.diylol.com/hfs/9b0/035/f9d/resized/socially-awkward-penguin-meme-generator-walk-wrong-way-pretend-to-check-phone-before-turning-back-f89204.jpg socially awkward penguin!) I think you're in a funk. Now you've got me nervous I'm a sap who is always bitching about the same thing. But HEY, I LOVE YOU. And if you need to bitch, DO IT. Your friends will be there through it. BTW, you're a cutie patootie with braces :)
