HA! You fell for it. I don’t watch those shitty shows but I got you to read my blog… Mission accomplished… I'm still awesome...
Sorry… but not really
It’s been a week and a day of unemployment and I’m settling in nicely. I realized just yesterday that my soul must have taken away with my job. I’m not sure if it’s a loss of self esteem or just complacency but I don’t seem to care as much as I recently did about little things like my appearance. I got home yesterday after screwing around and caught a reflection of myself and recall thinking something like holy fucking shit! I look like a hobo! Awesome! I pretty much looked like a cracked out version of rainbow bright that hadn’t shaved in a week. A white and green hat, a tie dye splash dog shirt under red and gray hoodie, khaki cargo shorts, and black canvas shoes with ankle socks isn’t a good look, ever, even on Helm.
I would have snapped a photo using the bathroom mirror for you, but I’m not a high school girl, and this isn’t myspace. I had the webcam option but I reserve that only for paying customers on helmeycam.com where I put on a “silence of the lambs” dance routine weekly. It’s not for the faint of heart…
Losing a job is very stressful and can definitely lead to depression :(
I am sure I'll be right there with ya again when we get final word on our school budget in the next month. Benn there too many times before and it just effin sucks.
Hang in there Helmey!

Good Lord, Man! Scared the hell out of me, I totally thought you'd crossed over and become One Of Them while wasting away as a unemployed dude. But "cracked out version of rainbow bright that hadn't shaved in a week" is very reassuring. And proof that we're the same age. And nice save, spelling "bright" correctly... you would've so given yourself away as a little girl deep down inside if you'd spelled it the way she did.

doesn't rainbow bright wear a dress and thigh highs?

Yes, she does indeed wear a dress and thigh highs. I think he's just trying to cover his own ass and he's actually found employment as a hobo man whore...

Dude. Lennie's been out of work home with me for 8 months now. Trust me, you'll look back on cracked out Rainbow Brite with a longing for the good old days. Good luck on the job hunt...for your wife's sake.
