(no subject)

Went to the school today to talk to their placement director, the person who gets paid to help their graduates find new jobs so the school can brag about how well their students do. Well, even she doesn't know how to help a 32-year-old woman who's never worked before get a real, paying job. So now she's calling in another person to attempt to help us all figure out what the heck we can do about me.

She seems to think we need to be clear about what motivates me. "What kind of work would you like to be doing?"

"Work I'm physically and mentally capable of doing that pays actual money."

"See, I want to be sure that the job will be a good fit for you. If the job isn't right for you, I'm worried that you won't be motivated. We need to find you something that you enjoy..."

I haven't been able to get through to her yet that impending starvation/homelessness/need for new CDs is an excellent motivating factor for me. Really.

I wanted to say more, but my brain has decided to compensate for the hot weather by freezing up. Good night, all.
