I really should blog but...
...I can't be stuffed.
...I'm sooooo not motivated to do anything really... reviewing my life at the moment will only depress me more.
...if I do it will turn into a rant against IT recruiters and the shoddy disregard they show to job seekers who put actual effort into their resume and application, and then ignore them and refuse to return their phone calls.
...I'll only end up telling you how I put weight on when I went on my trip to Perth/Darwin where I worked my butt off for, it seems now, no real reason. I am struggling to lose this weight I have put back on, but am actually managing to get rid of a little.
..."My Kid's A Star" got shafted 30 min shows on Saturday at midday, and I only realised last Saturday and saw the second last one. At least I know for this Saturday to watch the final episode. I also remembered to tape the first "Flight of the Conchords" too - so at least now I have something to watch - thanks Channel 10 for FINALLY picking up something worthwhile to watch and subsequently burying it straight away. Could be worse... I could have become a fan of "Canal Road" which Channel 9 gave 2 weeks and then buried it so deep it's not even on the program. Ew.
...that's about all I can offer that is sensical and worth giving public voice to. Such is life...

There are good days also.
What about Mother's Day yesterday? Family time, homemade cards from the kids, this day is a real morale booster for Dad as well as Mum. Dad can show his appreciation through the kids and realize how much his wife cares and loves him also.

Arrg recruiters! They don't ring back, or say you made the short list, then don't ring back! I have had several short lists where I was the "most likely" candidate...then silence. I even had some I was so over-qualified for it was silly...and silence.
I think they are hired by the gov to demoralise the people.

Hey, please don't give up faith with your weight loss! Why should you listen to a stranger? Because maybe it might give you motivation to know that I have been reading your blog and watching your progress from the very beginning and the amount of weight you have lost is such a great achievement and such an inspiration. It is so very hard to lose weight but so very easy to gain it - I know the struggle..the constant struggle. Please, be strong in this tough time and don't let it get you down and let your weight go up - instead let your weight go down and your emotional well being go up.....Chin up and go get 'em!

Steve is it? Steve, life's a bitch then you die. I don't know about you but I can't afford a house and that's depressing, at least Jesus has one up there for me. In the here and now life is like a roller coaster and I don't care much for roller coasters! Don't give up, be happy with who YOU are and know that if others don't see your worth HE does!

Steve, man that sucks. But turn that depression into constructive anger. You should be pissed. Now do something about it.
Maybe you need to strike out as an IT Consultant and lay the ground work so you wont have to work for weasels again. Maybe you can start to establish your own small business.
Sure it's hard. But you got a family that loves you. What else good is there to fight for?
Stay strong brother. I'm rooting for you.

Steve, you sound really down. I know from how long you've persisted with the weight loss that you have it in you to do amazing things. Remember that. Also, prayers are being said for you.
