Day 36 of Unemployed Living

I applied for jobs today at dive shops in Hawaii, St.Croix and Florida. I feel like I need to get away and this type of job would be fun and relaxed.

The other day I had a call back to a catering position in FL, but I never called them back. I talked myself out of it.

I had a call back to a company called FL Dream Homes. It was in Kissimmee, FL. I don't want to live there, but I really liked that company and the owner. I really want the Gulf Coast.

I applied to jobs here in MD, but nothing that would make me happy.

What do I want? Twenty minutes of staring at those four words, I've figured this much...

I want to live at the beach, where it is warm everyday. I want a job that doesn't tie me to a desk and allows me to be creative. Also, Lucy needs to be allowed to come to work, sometimes. 

This post is depressing. Here is a video of Lucy snoring. She makes me smile.

I Made A Change...

Whelp, I indeed made a change as the title of this post says. I quit my hated job on October 10th.
I am so happy that I am not stuck behind that computer surrounded by those vulture-esque, miserable, ungrateful people. (FYI. I am talking about the individuals in upper management, that sit in their offices and dictate and micro-manage "their associates," during the 10 hours a week they "work." Not disgruntle, I'm only speaking the truth!) 
I sit home on this Saturday evening and search for the millionth time, what to do with my life. I found nothing and here I am.
I'm rather angry. I am angry with how everything panned out for me. I really miss my life 4 years ago. I need to let it go because it's gone and never going to be like that again.
All my facebook friends (they are not actually my friends, more like acquaintances, I doubt I would even say hello to 95% of them in a store) are getting married, having kids, buying houses, living their fun, fantastic lives... Here I sit on Saturday night, in my parents home, looking for what I should do with my life. My 28 year old, unmarried, child-less (rare nowadays,) career-less, home-less, goal-less, pathetic life.
Back to google.

Changes

Every day sucks. I need something to change.

Can you read this?

I made my blog private, or should I say, invite only with the guest list being less then five.
So I ask, can you read this?

You Can't Pay Me To Swim In The Severn River.

I live on the upper part of the Severn River.

This morning at 5:30 am, I walked to my pier to see hundreds upon hundreds of spot fish, 3-4 inches long acting lethargic. The fish would poke their head out of the water, drift down a few inches and repeat poking their head out of the water.

Tonight when I got home from work, I walked again to the pier to find these same fish in the hundreds, floating dead on the surface of the water.

I hopped in the boat and took a spin up the river. I found dead white perch and yellow perch approximately 20-30.

I went further up the river and saw the algae. This algae has not been in my cove.

In the past two weeks, we have pulled our crab traps (as we do everyday, 1-3 times a day) we have found over a dozen dead crabs in our two traps. Also approximately 10 fish (catfish, white perch and sunny's) got in the traps and were dead.

How sad.

Also, I emailed some people this exact recap of what I found. These people to be exact:
