So rather than answer the deluge of PMs one at a time about my return, I thought I would answer all questions in a simple post.

1. Yes, I was gone from Lit for over a year. I met a guy that I really liked and we lived together until last month.

2. No, I am not crushed or heartbroken. We were already growing apart.

3. I'm living at home until I can find steady work and afford a place of my own.

4. Yes, I finished school, but as an English/Journalism major there aren't many jobs that pay.

5. Right now I work as a temp when I can get work - mostly admin type stuff.

I think that answers most of them. I'm really not avoiding anyone, I just didn't want to answer the same questions over and over. C U on the boards!
 
Welcome backjeanni_bean,

I wish you good luck and might your issues get solve pretty soon.
 
Welcome back. It's tough to find a good job with a degree in English. Ask me how I know. ;)

Sounds like you've had quite a year, but that you are doing well. I didn't get to really talk to you the first go round, but I hope that the friendships and fun of the site are fruitful for you and you have a blast :D

Okay, I forgot one. No, that is not me in the profile pic but I wish it was.I do have red hair and lots of freckles like her. Unlike me, she is beautiful. I am tall and skinny like a string bean.
 
Do you just have your 4 year degree? And are you still in Virginia? Norfolk, Portsmouth, Chesapeake, and Virginia Beach are hurting for teachers lately. Perhaps that may be a way to go, as public trust in journalistic integrity is at a historical low, unless you watch a channel that lines up with your own political views, in which case most people take that as the gospel truth. Still, it could be worse, at least you did not get a degree in meteorology. Ask my former model ex how that worked out for her, if you order a drink in the right bar in the Biloxi MS area.

That is exactly why I went to trade school after the army. I have a skillset, that is in demand, and will stay that way, and no student debt. I am going on 10 years in the HVAC trade, and if I do not like where I am working, I can get hired anywhere else in the country, within a week. Hell, I had a great reputation in my area in just under 5 years, with customers that were more than willing to follow me to another company.

Anyway, keep your head up, and keep putting one foot in front of the other. All your hard work was not for nothing, just keep pushing forward, and it will work out. You'll see.
