I’m getting really obsessive; I’m tempted to subscribe to Stratfor’s War on Iraq service. Fifty bucks… well, Kit Paypaled me a buck yesterday, so call it forty-nine bucks. I’ll think about it. I am an admitted information junkie.

It occurred to me yesterday that I’d have a blast taking a year off, travelling around the world, and blogging the whole thing. Sort of like Allbritton, but less dangerous and not really anything like a professional journalist. I’m committed to my current job for a few years minimum, so it won’t happen any time soon, but one never knows. Maybe someday. I could have done it the other year, while I was unemployed, and come to think of it I should have. I hadn’t expected such a long period of unemployment, though. (Laugh at my naivety.)

At least you haven't looked at Jane's Defense and gone "I could really make a lot of use by susbcribing to this $500 service"

Personally I keep thinking I should get like 10 folks and we could chip in and just share a login. But that would be dishonest...

Actually, I looked at Jane's Defense and went "Man, it'd be too embarassing to admit how much I'd like this."

The problem I'm having with unemployment is that I don't feel I have the financial security to really use my unemployment productively. In other words, now that I have all the time in the world to do all the things I wanted to do, I don't feel I can justify spending the money associated with those things. So all this lovely time is being wasted. Bleh.
