you can't get out if you're already there

I'm still here. I know my updating has been rather slack lately. One of the few things I do miss about my old office job... all the time I had to fart around online, every single day. I knew I had it good, trust me. I was paid to sit around on my ass, answering phones ad doing the occasional office work like fixing the copier or fax machine, or shipping a small amount of packages every week. Mostly I worked on music, chatted online with friends, helped moderate a few mailing lists, created websites, and published my zine. Notice that when Upline went away, I stopped publishing? Wasn't just a coincidence. Wasn't the money, either - well, not in the way you might think. It was simply more of a pain in the ass than it was worth at the time to trek all the way to Kinko's; add on that the people working there at the time were all moronic [at least now I have a highly competent friend that works there, yay!] and it all adds up to: not worth it. Of course, now I'm working on trying to publish things again, but it is a slow and leisurely process; no stress there. Still, I miss having all that [highly] paid time to do whatever I liked as long as I did my job, too.
Coyote also has a good chunk of that, also... just without the T3, free long distance, high powered computers at the ready, carpeted floors and posh chairs, endless air conditioning, and ridiculously high pay. Still, I work for awesome people, I get to look the way I want and work on my crap all day, listen to my own music, and tell people to get the fuck out if they are jerks. This is a great job. I can't complain about it at all.
( stuff that's been going on lately )

It looks like it might storm again. That means, of course, that I won't have to brave the mosquito-ridden back yard to water my plants tonight. As long as my basement doesn't flood... *crosses fingers*
