I already had to get a second job because my full time job wasn't paying enough and now we've gotten a pay cut. I applied for a new position in part time job and sent out resumes for a new "real" job as well. I need a GD bailout.

There's all kinds of suckitude in my life right now. I'm still hoping it will all become better when Obama takes office. Am I delusional?

5. Nah...just optimistic.
I know for me there are times when optimism is about all it feels like I have left...

Hang in there, hon. It'll get better. Really, it will.
