>"Woman, I am Thor!"
I'd been thinking of that joke ever thince the VIKINGTH thing tharted, but I couldn't remember ekthactly how it went.
I really admire people who can do freelance/contract work - I'm just not emotionally cut out for it. Selling out to the man was ultimately very relaxing for me.
This is me. I wish sometimes I could hare off on my own, but I know I can't. Hell, I don't even know what I'd do anymore.

LOL, even.
Sean, glad you got your check.
Steph, people who respond to expressions of one's pain with counterexamples of their own pain make me want to smack them. They remind me of my grandmother... well, everyone in my family, really. I think they think it's just conversation, or something. Lack of empathy - I don't think most of my family comprehends what reaching out for support or sympathy even sounds like, or what to do with it if they realize it's happening.
It's very stressful sometimes working freelance, but I already know I'm happier doing this than working in an office.

I came so close to spitting my TJ's quiche all over my screen. TOTES WORTH IT.
Steph, I hope you find it helpful, in whatever form you use it!
Sean, I'm so glad your check came.
Insofar as I do work freelance, I guess all I can offer is the Snot Boogie reason.
They were supposed to let me play. This America, man.
I mean, really, if they cared about my relations/ respect for the status quo, you'd think they would throw me a bigger bone(that's what she said) and not let me sit here and read Saul Alinsky all day. You know?
IJS.
Also, if I were Dr. Laura(ew...I just threw up in my mouth) and wanted to look like a victim, wouldn't it be smarter to wait for my contract non-extension and *then* brag that I'm Too Hot For Radio?
Yay, Sean!
Congrats, Trudy! That's gotta be a great feeling!

DH is the same way (well, some of his freelance work IS in an office, but you know what I mean), and I'm dead serious when I say I really admire it. There's a whole nother layer of work on top of the actual work that I couldn't deal with, and people who can impress the hell out of me.
Yeah, I admire people who can work a normal job and make it work.

Love this!
Congrats on the loan payage, Trudy. Also, glad to hear the check arrived, Sean.
