I would cry myself to sleep in a fetal position, while eating copious wads of ice cream...

If I could only afford ice cream, holy fuck am I broke... The only reason I'm still alive is because I've been eating the rat carcasses I find in my back yard.

Seriously though this fucking sucks, the unemployment rate in my city is one of the highest in Canada, and it's gotten so bad that the mayor here made an announcement to the local news station basically saying there aren't any jobs for young people here, get the fuck out while you can.

I'm pretty much one of the few webdesigners left, A webdesigner pal of mine who has a university education moved to Ottawa because he couldn't make ends meet here.

I've decided to try to ride out the current economic climate, I've set my roots here, I have friends and people I care about too much about to leave without a fight. I have a couple of leads that came in so I'm gonna pursue those fiercely.

Pragmatically speaking certain choices are going to need to be made if things don't pick up soon, next month I'm going to be on borrowed time, if I can't find work I'm gonna hawk my laptop to pay off my rent, and use the rest of the money to move.

Last year I BARELY made it, so if this is gonna be the end, I just wanted to say it's been a privilege and a pleasure, instead of leaving you with static...

Sincerely,
