Chapter 8: In Which Our Hero, Freed Of His Bondage To The Mad King, Sets Forth To Join The Navy

…with additional commentary by his cat, Mr. Winkins

The California Kid & The Great Job Hunt

First off, many thanks to all of you who have lent me good wishes and moral support.

So, I’ve been filling out online job apps (when the online job app pages for a company don’t freeze up or otherwise waste my time) and good old paper job apps. I’m applying at any business that uses live humans.

Financially, Grace and I are on a very very very short leash. Looks like we’ll be seeing all the summer blockbusters when they hit DVD. Fortunately, I lost my job at a time when we have a fridge and freezer full of food, so we won’t start starving for about 2 weeks or so:) As for the financial outlook a month out…well, if I haven’t found work by then, I reckon it’s bank robbing time:)

Anyway, the saga progresses and I shall keep you all informed.
