i finally got the laptop online. i'm going to start reading this book i got a long time ago, on PHP. hopefully i can teach myself some stuff that will get me another job. yesterday i was checking out the job boards, and i saw how few jobs are out there that i'm qualified for. it's crazy. my job description is just like, gone. in the short space of 6 months the market went from being saturated with "front-end web developer" type positions to being bereft of them. it's so weird and disheartening. there aren't even a lot of tech support jobs. i'm not sure how easy this is going to be, but i'll keep looking -- and meanwhile try and acquire some more skillZ.
