i've been spending pretty significant wads of time thinking things over lately and i've decided that i no longer want any professional affiliation with the world-o-porn. i've had a good run of things and the past 7 (!!) years have been interesting to say the least but i think it is time that smut and i part ways. i had a pretty good feeling that my time was coming to a close so i enrolled in an MBA program that is nearing completion. not only have i gained insight into the exciting fields of quantitative analysis and corporate valuation, i've learned that dante obviously missed a level of hell that involves working full time and taking classes in the evening.

that is the day. or it will be the day. and hopefully it will be the last day i work until at least the new year. through a little budgetary craftiness, i've managed to accumulate some savings that will hold me over for a few months while i concentrate on things that matter to me. namely, surfing and re-learning to play the piano. at that point i'll only have about 7 weeks of school left before i graduate so i can concentrate on studying, although i'm only taking one class and one class is exponentially easier than two.
when i started working i had friends that were laid off. and my company went through some re-structuring and laid a bunch of people off. at first i felt bad--really bad--for them. but as time passed i felt kind of jealous. and that's one of many reasons why i'm laying myself off. i need a freakin break and i think a little vocational deconstruction is in order. time for old misery to reach under the bed and pull out some loot to use on fun stuff.
the plans are damn near set. funds are in order. i've got a new custom surfboard being shaped. the approaching winter season means that big, mackin northwest swells will be landing in california. my homie in pdx is awaiting my travel plans to visit so we can board on mt hood. bags are packed, pre flight. and you can bet your ass i'm gonna be high.
its gonna be a long, long time
till employment brings round again

Good luck in your future ventures.
