I spoke with an old friend today.  I've not had a lot of luck finding work on my own, and I'm living at home with family out in the middle of nowhere.  My friend lives in a bigger city (it's hard to be much smaller than this place) and says her job place is "constantly hiring".  It's about a fourth of what I could be earning per hour with my degree, but it's more than I'm earning now, so if I don't get into grad school and I don't find the kind of work I can do (that pays better) I might move in there.  I need some kind of income to pay for the additional training and/or certifications I'm going to need, and I can't exactly live without money.

In gaming, I spent money on the Magic computer game on Steam.  It's kinda hit-and-miss, but maybe I'll write a review of it.  I don't really recommend it, but I was hungry for some Magic and it was about my only real option.

What else am I up to?  Been doing alright lately;  I feel like I'm never accomplishing anything, but I had an argument with family yesterday and got something done today.  I should be going out to get my permit tomorrow; it's my goal to get a license by Christmas, and I think my family will finally cover the insurance cost for me.  Can't get a job because I can't get there without a license, and I can't get a driver's license without having money from a job.  I'll work through it eventually; it's good to finally have this Gordian Knot worked out.
