I'm having a bad day of underemployment. Sometimes, I'm able to appreciate the extra time I have, the energy I can spend on my kids or hobbies, but not today. Right now, I feel very, very insecure. I have been looking for full-time employment for seven months. The last time I seriously job hunted, I was 29 years old and it took six weeks. I have always relied -- not on an optimistic nature or naturally upbeat attitude (because I don't have those) -- but on my determination: Keep sending out resumés, talking to contacts and taking interviews. Stay open to new possibilities. Something good has to happen eventually. It's math, the law of averages or whatever.
