So we're doing Spring now

[effex]

The job search continues to be bullshit (and if anyone knows anyone in Chicago who needs a graphic designer/receptionist/office worker/retailer, or a roommate for May onward, please let me know!), but Chicago is gorgeous in it's early Spring and I am otherwise content.

The family weekend went well; I was 'encouraged' to attend church (Baptist) with my aunt and tiny cousin, but aside from that the trip was fun, drama-free, and full of suddenly-adult!cousins, (when did that happen?).

Also! Every time I wonder why I bother with Tumblr something like this pops up:

And I remember it's my #1 pretty dealer. (That's a fanvid, folks, an 'original spec music video for the incredibly talented indie pop artist Marina and the Diamonds comprised of a supermix of tracks from her inspiring debut album, "The Family Jewels."')

That may be the best music video I have ever seen.

[nods] I'm thinking Yuletide, for sure. I mean, have you seen more perfect Yuletide bait?

[zanzando]

I daresay I have not.

Good luck with the job search! I'm looking now too and it's a special kind of horrid meant to grind me down in all my weak spots but so far, I'm still here.

That music vid is delightful, and I'm a fan of Marina and the Diamonds music so it's all good.

Thank you! And good luck to you too <3

Ha, now I'm wondering if DW has some kind of unemployed support comm. I'm sure there's enough of us...

I have not seen an unemployment group on dw but there probably is one.
