The job dilemna

So tomorrow is the day that I'm officially supposed to begin searching for the new job. It's kinda aggravating because the last four days have been WILDLY productive as far as the writing goes and I'm feeling more excited about it than I have in a long time.

I have conflicting worries about looking right at this moment though. Basically, I don't want to fall into the trap of my old job and have something that keeps me in Special K and hockey tickets but then I look up and 5-6 years of my life have gone by and I still am no closer to where I want to be on the career front. I think the recent birthday is a contributing factor as far as that goes.

And then the worry that if I wait too long, I'm going to be scrambling financially. (At the moment, I'm set through October - so it's not immediate, but still, it'll be here sooner than I'd like.)

So, flist, any advice?
