Gainfully Employed Once Again

I am gainfully employed once again. Thanks to all who sent me leads and forwarded my info on to anyone else in an effort to help me find work.
After having about half a dozen things fall through at once in the week my severance ended, I decided it was time to give up the pursuit of freelance/contract work (as a means to make a living) and get a real/full time job once again. Despite the freelance thing not working out, it was an eye-opening learning experience and I now have a much better idea of what that entails should I go that route in the future. Had I known it would not work out, however, I would have definitely spent a bit more time on my other web site ideas and redesigns.
I'm happy to be back at my former job - the one before the recent one who laid me off - now as a full-time telecommuter. With all of the familiar faces there, I feel like I've been gone 6 months instead of 2 years! I won't mention my employer by name, because I have no intention of blogging about my job and do not want my thoughts expressed here associated with them in any way.
Congrats!
