So I'm unemployed and have learned that writing about it is supposed to be therapeutic. We'll see I guess. I can't imagine this blog gaining any popularity, but whatever. I doubt I'll make this very personal. I guess it'd be weird if some prospective employer found this blog and considered me too whiny for their position, so we'll keep things simple for now.
I live in minnesota, specifically the twin cities (minneapolis/st paul). On a side note, I once met someone who thought the capital of wisconsin was cheyenne. I used to be an engineer at one of the many medical device companies here.
I used to write in college and looking back, am surprised at what college literary magazines are willing to publish (namely things by me). Supposedly, according to malcolm gladwell's outliers, it takes 10000 hours to master a craft. I would be surprised if I've even spent 500 hours of my life writing, so maybe some day I might be a good writer. And then I'll get book deals and movie deals like Diablo Cody or that Julie/Julia girl or the waiter rant guy.
I've already sent my resume to two jobs. I guess I should get back to that.
