My latest job interview would appear to have fallen through, this time for a job that&#8217;s something I <em>have done before<\/em> (web content producer in a news environment).  I&#8217;m really starting to wonder if I&#8217;m doing something that&#8217;s just egregiously <em>wrong<\/em> here.  I&#8217;m really venturing into losing-the-faith territory here.  I thought my experience counted for something, and I&#8217;ve been fortunate enough to have a string of employers who felt that way too, degree or no.  It&#8217;s really starting to feel like my luck has run out now though &#8211; but I&#8217;m just not sure <em>why<\/em>.  All I can do is keep throwing stuff at the wall to see if something sticks.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m trying not to dwell on it and let this thing eat my soul for breakfast, but at the same time&#8230;it&#8217;s not something I can really afford to relax on.  More and more, I find myself really looking forward to time with my son so I can just tune the rest of the world out.  Grown-up stuff is totally boring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not much news to report &#8211; the kittens keep getting bigger and bigger. But you already knew that.
