Things I've been doing since finishing grad school

It's been around three months since I finished grad school and I honestly have not been doing much with my time. The longer I go without steady employment the less motivated I am to do stuff, too, which is helpful. But in case you were wondering what I've been up to (you haven't- who's even reading this?) here's a list:

- updating a website for money (not taking into account that the more time I spend on it the more money I get)
- volunteering to help kids become better writers and leading a humor writing workshop for 10-12-year-olds
- karaoke/ drinking
- stand up comedy/ drinking
- working twice a week at an after school program/ not making enough money
- sending out resumes, getting rejected by potential employers
- getting discouraged about it
- making found poetry with my rejection letters
- trying to come up with creative ways to make money (not trying very hard)
- sitting in the park on nice days
- staying in on less nice days so I don't spend money
- applying for food stamps (soon)/ wondering if my Ivy League degree disqualifies me from this
- spending too much time on facebook
- spending at least an hour sitting at my computer in my pajamas every morning (afternoon, really) doing nothing productive
- showering/ washing my hair less and less frequently
