Day #8 - 10/23/97 - 4:00AM

My body doesn't know it can sleep-in. It keeps waking me up at 2:30am - the time I used to get up for work. I just know as soon as I get in the habit of sleeping from 11pm until 8am I'll probably get a job offer. Just my luck.

Got an email from Jay with some unemployment advice:

"Here's a quick tip if you haven't already figured it out. If you carry a little salt around with you, the soup from the soup kitchen really isn't that bad. But don't get into the habit of selling a pint of your own blood every day to buy a bottle of wine & bet on the horses with the rest hoping to hit it big. All I ever do is get dizzy and find myself falling asleep in the street right on top of my 'I Will Work For Food Sign'.

This is why I love that guy. Funny, yet practical.
