It's strange how nice it is to be working again, even though it's really not even real jobby-job working that I'm doing. It's just nice to be making some money and being vaguely more productive with my time. I'm always motivated to write more when I'm working, and I need all the help I can get!
Perspective is so all-important to me. I used to bounce back and forth between Oregon and L.A. for 6 - 9 months at a time, alternately working and saving money, working on projects with my friends, or doing some sort of vacation-y something. Living in that cycle always kept my point of view fresh and excited about where I was and what I was doing, and I used the time to the fullest. For the last couple years now I've vaguely been working on Westender stuff, but really my role in that is pretty small at this point in the process, and otherwise I've just been dicking around for a couple of years. Weird. I've had lots of fun, but being largely irresponsible for so long has gotten old, and I don't appreciate all the great things I've got going for me so much.
I suppose if I had been stinking rich for all of that time and could have been travelling for much of that time, I'd feel different, but that ain't the case.
Crap. December called and her feet are particularly sore this morning so I have to go in early and give her a pre-massage foot massage... and my loincloth is still in the wash! Damn!
