The first day of the rest of my life...

Ok, here it is the first full day of what I'm considering a new chapter of life, or at least a (hopefully) short intermission between chapters. Today's goal is to maintain the positive attitude I forced myself into yesterday. So far, so good.
So I slept late, simply because we were up late last night with R&D watching the last 2 X-men movies. I hadn't yet seen #3, and D hadn't seen #2 either. I enjoyed #3 but didn't consider it quite as good as the other two. I can't say whether that's because of a different director, or the writing, or what.
Shortly after getting up, I dragged my groggy carcass to the car to drive Spousal-Unit to her volunteer thing at the local cable company. Then it was home for a quick shower to clean up and wake up, and back to the mall to figure out what's wrong with our new cell phones. That was cleared up quickly and painlessly, and it was off to return the X-Men3. Home again, some leftover pizza for lunch with a side order of channel surfing, and then to job hunting.
I must have about 30 or 40 bookmarks for agencies, search sites, and individual companies. I surfed through about half of these for new stuff and sent out 4 more applications/resumes. I'm not sure but I think things may be starting to pick up a bit. Perhaps now that we're into 4th quarter or something.
Now to play around a bit, maybe clean the kitchen a little. Pretty mundane and boring stuff, I know. But, so far, I seem to be keeping myself sane.
