I'm sitting around in my pj and wondering what to write. Lots have changed since April. I lost my job, and I'm on the hunt for a new position. A friend of mine is in the same boat I am in, and solidarity is a welcoming thing. We are going to review our resumes together and talk about cover letters. We're going to drink sake and read books. We're going to be able to lose the weight that the stress of employment brought unto us. We're going to be able to make our own goals and find out as adults what we really want to be in life.
When I referenced 'we' some of those things might not occur for my friend, and that is alright. Solidarity is welcoming and as long as we have allies, our goals, no matter what they are, will happen.
