Life as a bum

I've been unemployed for almost two months now, and the novelty of doing nothing is dwindling. The reality of having no money of my own and having to start all over again is a bit daunting. I have thought about it before when i quit my job some time ago, but i didn't imagine that the feeling would be this bad. I am looking for a job and I have a second interview tomorrow. However, I'll be going away for about two weeks and this causes a problem. I did not tell this employer that I have a holiday planned, I want to know if he's going to hire me or not. If he does then I'll tell him and let him decide if he still wants to, if not then it's his loss isn't it.
Being a bum isn't really so bad, it gives me time to think and plan about my future. Also, I get to hang out with friends and catch up on my reading (for the people who really know me, you know that this is an important thing for me). I just have to take it easy for now, since I know I can't get any job soon. I only have to accept for now that I'm back in my dad's list of people to support. Hopefully before the year ends that situation would change. Life is not the same without earning my own money now. It was really different when I could just buy anything I wanted at any time. Oh well, life as I know it would change again soon. Let's just hope that it would be much better than it is now.
