It's not that I don't have time for this....

(or "Let's Face It, The Only Reason You're Here is Because You Clicked on My Twitter Profile Link")

Okay. It IS that I don't have time for this, but at times I really do forget about self publishing. Also, I just don't write like I used to. I never was much for linking to other things on the internet, hence why I've merely lurked at Metafilter for the past 7 years, asking and answering the odd question here and there. There are plenty, and I do mean plenty, of people linking to everything and by the time it gets to me, you've already heard of it too.

I used to do well with the non-fiction storytelling, but then I started to see that there was a lot of that out there that was better as well. It's a little bit different, because everybody's story is unique and worth telling. But that doesn't mean that everybody's story is interesting and worth reading.

At times, I used this tool as a cheese-sandwich announcement device, or C-SAD as I like to call it now. There's a lot of that out there as well. But, unless you are really into the variations of cheese and bread combinations, they aren't worth wasting your time on.

Here's the rub though: I'm employed by an employer again for the first time since moving back to the States last September. I feel that this is some Blog-Worthy C-SAD. (Or, as I like to call it, BW C-SAD) It was (not) a difficult decision to leave the world of freelance and once again have someone else take care of paying my taxes for me. Sure, the money's not as good but I can finally go to the doctor and find out that I'm not actually dying of anything horrible like I've suspected for the past 10 months. At least, that's the plan.

So, I'm happy to be working for someone else again. Might have been an easier transition had it not been a major corporate conglomerate, but you take what you can get.

Jeff once said to me, "I hardly ever understand the things you say." And when I say 'Jeff once said', I mean just two minutes ago on gChat. So I tell you the same thing I said to Jeff.

All part of my evil plan.

gimini!
