I'm totally not trying to condescend to you, April. Just trying to help you feel happier, maybe. I mean, it's okay to feel sad, too, and I'm not trying to say you're wrong or bad to feel sad about this, just trying to help you over the hump.
I do understand what it's like to miss something or not be a part of something that's important to you. Maybe OCF isn't the same thing for me, but not being in "The Vagina Monologues" this year hit me like a truck. I had been looking forward to being in the show again as soon as we left the stage the year before. So when I found out that I wouldn't have a part it was really hard.
I ended up coping in a similar way to what I mentioned above - I thought about things that were good and tried to find alternative ways to have fun while the VMs were going on. Cause it was a choice between that and being miserable. And that's all I was saying - you're my friend and I don't want you to be miserable.
As to the unemployment office - that both sucks and blows at the same time.
Would your family be able to help out a bit if the unemployment office doesn't come through?
