The good things about being laid off....

I am attempting to be positive here. But I guess some of the good stuff about being unemployed is that you get to stay up late. Like now, for instance. It's past 2 a.m. on a Monday morning and the only people around that are up are me and various drunk drivers speeding about.

And you know what? I can get up at noon. No one cares. I can choose not to shower for maybe a week. Who's to know? I could be that hermit lady they find dead in her apartment with 6 tons of old Reader's Digests bound in twine.

I went to Rite Aid this weekend and thought about dyeing my hair purple. Why not? I'm no longer a corporate America cog. I'm unemployed. I'm on the dole. Why not complete the picture?
