Okay.
I got fired on December 26th and have been living the Unemployed and Searching for a Job life ever since.
My nearly 80-year-0ld dad went into the hospital with some sort of kidney failure again last week.
Two days later, my 56-year-old brother went into the same hospital with congestive heart failure. Both are still there, leaving my other two brothers and one of my sisters to take turns taking care of my elderly and demented mother.
I'm dealing with a huge -- and I mean HUGE -- issue with the IRS after a few years of not dealing with it.
So given all of these crappy things happening around me, how's come I don't feel so bad?
It's a puzzlement.
It could very well be that I have finally taken my own advice, which I have given to many many of my friends. Here's how it goes:
When you don't what to do next, just do the next thing.
Think about it.

Good cheer is a mysterious thing. I hope it hasn't passed by now, but it probably has.
Oh, and though I say "Asian", fie on all those people who think "Oriental" is an insult. I mean, geez. If it bugs them, they should just call me Occidental. After all, which one sounds like an ornament and which like an accident?
well, the good cheer hasn't passed...
and as for the Oriental thing, it gives me the opportunity, when people say, "You lie like a rug!" to reply, "No, I lie like an oriental rug."
you got fired on 12/26? that's just MEAN.
Yah, giving me my best lesson out of 2006: NEVER WORK FOR SCUMBAGS.
