Welcome to my FIRST Post!

Hello All,

Welcome to my very first post!  I'm excited to have an outlet here, and I'd love to get started by introducing myself:  I just turned 27, and have recently found myself in the funemployment circle.  I have worked in publishing for roughly eight years, and now, I have all the time in the world, which is strange.

Since I became unemployed, I have traveled a bit, seen family, friends, and places I had never been to before--all exciting things!  But alas, now I must stay in the great city of Chicago for a bit.  One of my favorite things to do in Chicago is to walk around and explore the different neighborhoods.  I will definitely post pictures for everyone when I go on my littler perambulations across the city.  Please don't judge the quality of the photos, however!  I am no expert photographer and have had no training, but it's fun to do anyways. . .

I should also mention to you all the reason behind this blog.  With all the time that I have on my hands now, I sometimes wonder what I should be doing.  I don't know if anyone else who is unemployed feels like they are aimlessly wandering, or if anyone who is employed for that matter, but I wanted to create a place where people can discuss the things that create meaning in their lives outside of their jobs, etc.

For example, I enjoy writing, and reading, and walking, and hanging out with my dog, Morky (oh the beautiful Morky).  All of you will be very familiar with him in due time.

Anyways, I am going to work out, and then I will try to post tomorrow.  Have a great, fulfilled day!  And thank you to anyone who is reading my blog--I guarantee that it will be a lot more exciting once I get it going.
