Man, I was just in your situation, and - I know this is easy for me to say - but shit just comes out of the blue. I just got a new job about a month ago that, until I was actually hired, I would never have thought I could get. Shit just comes out of the blue. I graduated from college last year and it took me a year to find a good job. I was working in the interim, but my job(s) at the time were seasonal and not really much of a career; or, they barely paid. Just keep on and something will come up, eventually.
One piece of advice, though - where appropriate, make yourself stand out, and don't be afraid to do so in an unusual way. For my current job, the first thing I told the interviewers was that I don't know how to tie a tie. It was a kind of funny story related to my travails in getting to the interview, and put everyone at ease. A bit before that, I landed a regular (though barely paying) freelance gig by writing an unorthodox cover letter. This stuff wouldn't work in every field, of course, but I think the right people will appreciate it if you let your guard down a little.
