How long has it been ...

I recently came across this journal entry from the beginning of January ... it's starting to sink in how "crazy" life has been ... and for how long!

2009.01.13

I'm sort of scared, on a mad sort of rollercoaster. One day I contemplate world domination, teeth glaring and eyebrows perched ... the next I slump in self defeat - seemingly unable to move, to succeed, to comprehend the severity of the life and decisions ahead.

I can't find a part time job. I have been trying ... I called 50 bars & restaurants today. FIFTY. That's a lot of "Hi ... can I speak to the manager? No, you're not hiring? Can I waste both of our time and fill out an application just in case?"
