Well. No dice. Unemployment continues, although I'm getting by on freelance writing. Still, being able to afford...you know...stuff, is sorely missed.
I'm at least making the most of my free time by spending all of it on cultural consumption. I'm on a sweet French new wave cinema kick, and reading lots of books about Israel and the Arab world.
Overall I feel more in touch with the world than when I'm being more social. Although it'd be nice not to be prone to such extreme swings back and forth. I guess that's just a part of my personality.

"Essentially, politics is an emotional plague passed on from generation to generation by those who, instead of working to heal themselves, act out their pathologies by trying to 'reform' others." --Wilhelm Reich
