Some good news

I found out I'm eligible for Washington State extended unemployment benefits (EB). This buys me three more months, then I become a "99er"... no longer capable of collecting state or federal insurance benefits. It is still a day-to-day search for someone who will hire me. The state's worksource website lists 18,953 jobs in Washington. I have no problem finding appropriate work and I apply to them with very little feedback. I'm trying to stay in the Northwest, but I'd like to stay in my field, so I'll relocate for the right job.
Meanwhile I keep interested in my endeavors by reading (Stephen Hawking "The Grand Design"), listening to music (Neil Young "Le Noise"), and playing guitar. And watching a lot of tv.

New data brighten outlook for economy
