I've never understood the phrase "face the music." As though such a thing can be done. Sure, you can face the people making the music, but the music itself? Impossible, I say!

Still, I'm facing the music. I've been doing the ostritch approach to bad news: head in sand and ass in air. Oh, and I can't fly away from it this time. Or I can, but I won't. So I'm consolidating massive student loans, getting deferrments on a car loan (hopefully), sucking it up and calling the credit card people back, etc. It's not easy, but not nearly as tough as ignoring it.

The monsters under the bed want to offer you tea and biscuits, but the growl their request, so you get scared and hide in the light. That make sense?

Had a falling out with a friend. Never before had I been UN-invited to a party. But I can put that experience on my "1000 Shitty Things To Ensure Happen To Me Before I Die" list.

My spiritual quest continues, as always. I've been very Buddhist these last few days. You know the deal: observe myself in THIS moment, take everything in, recognize that I am IN it, but not OF it. A beautiful thing. I've felt lighter and more centered than I have in a long time.

Still, I'm on the job hunt. Please, my beloved friends, help a brother out.
