I hate it here. Indianapolis sucks ass. If you've been paying attention, I moved back to the "city" of my birth, a place I couldn't wait to leave, in order to spend time with my parents before they die. That's the only reason I'm here, there's no love for Indianapolis. I left a vibrant port city, Seattle, a real city, a city of the world with a thriving cultural scene and restaurants of all flavors that are open past 3:00PM, for a provincial shit-town. I don't know which of my parents it will be that dies second, my mom or my dad, but ten minutes after that funeral, I'm planning my move back home to Seattle.
I know...I know, its been far too long since my last post. But I'm here now and I'll catch you up on everything. So, since getting laid-off, I have been thinking about going back to school. The thing is, I've been thinking about going back for 10 years, but the thought of it always filled me with terror because I couldn't figure out what I wanted to do. Well, I decided to go to Seattle Central and get a certificate in computer networking. My thinking is this: get certified in something that leads to working smart instead of hard. Then, that job can take me back to school for something I really want to do. So anyway, there is a program through Unemployment Insurance called the Commissioner Approved Training Plan that allows one to go to school while still recieving one's unemployment benefits, without having to do the weekly job searches. The program doesn't pay for school, it just allows one to go to school and not have to work. Sounds like a great program, huh?...
