Twitter- Cracking up at "Between Jobs: The Blog," written by a woman named Pam Bellemare who was recently laid off. I particularly enjoyed the "What to do with old business cards" post on March 5. Being that business cards only cost a few bucks from my favorite printing site, I'm almost tempted to get some just to cut up!
- Cracking a smile at "Unemploymentality: The definitive unemployment blog" by John Henion. Too much free time? John has a more sarcastic twist than my take in his "Four social causes endorsed by the Unemploymentality" post.
- Nodding at a March 6th post "5 Things to do when you're unemployed. Hint: It's not job hunting." by Penelope Trunk of Brazen Careerist.
- Shrugging at the kind of advice that you don't want to hear but probably need to hear more often in the "Tools for Life Blog." A post by Erika Mitchell from November 2008 entitled "Top 5 Things to Do When Unemployed" contains practical items such as "Exercise." "Learn." There now you don't have to read it.
- Sighing at a post from 2003 by a woman named Tara Alexandra Kachaturoff. A reminder that this has happened before and we'll all make it through again: "The Top 10 Things To Do When You're Unemployed."

I enjoyed traveling to those posts you had listed - there are some funny ones! Humor helps. I tried getting back into the job force after raising kids. Depressing. Every company I ever worked for was either no longer in business, moved, was bought out - and every boss was either dead or retired. So much for a resume! I may as well have said I was just born. Had to laugh or I'd cry.
hee hee loved the business card craft - I personally use mine for shopping lists ...
