It's been so long since I've had a steady and regular paying job. I've done lots of consulting gigs and small things here and there, but now, after 2 years and 16 days...I may have landed a job. And the crazy thing? I don't even know what to think!

Part of it is that while the position is similar, the pay is little more than half of what I used to make. It's still good money, but I think maybe it feels...I don't know...like I'm getting robbed out of my talent or something. On the other hand, maybe I should look at this as a blessing; the world has changed and someone WANTS ME to be an important and integral part of their team. I've been offered a chance to rebuild so much of what I've lost. I should be grateful...

....and I am. I guess I'm just conflicted. This experience has turned me psycho I think.
