    Personally I can't find a job, but I don't really mind. Gives me plenty of time to write. Prices haven't fallen too much here, so I'm getting pretty damn good at budgeting. Also as a consequence I've pretty much given up booze which is hardly a bad thing.

    My parents seem fine currently. Mum's a tax accountant/accountant, and people have to pay taxes so her job's secure during this tax season, and the next few since she's good at what she does. Dad's a semi-retired (whatever that means) accountant/consultant. His stocks took a hit, but his portfolio is pretty diversified. I'm glad neither have any real debt.

    My thoughts are with those of you who are in precarious situations. Best of luck.
