Can't relate. Was laid off in May, still looking >.>

Been at it about 9 months in earnest (took a few months off because I was really burnt out).

Shit's bad.

Yeah same man. While I've been looking, I've allowed myself to be super picky with the next job, because I was so burnt out and bitter at my last job. Being home with my baby twins has been great.

Watching my bank account steadily drain, and panicking every night about losing our house and being unable to feed them however has not been as great.

Ah, congrats on the baby time at least! Hopefully we get back in the job saddle before too long. Being poor is absolutely a health hazard.
