Yep, that can be a doozey. It's why I quit my job. Now if only I could find one that would pay better and work me less, I would be in for life. If only I could get paid to write and eat ... I would never have to work again. Drowning in work. Yep, that can be a doozey. It’s why I quit my job. Now if only I could find one that would pay better and work me less, I would be in for life.

I know what you mean, I felt the same way when I was working a 9-5, which is probably why I've been so scared to graduate. I don't want to end becoming a slave again! But I guess that's why life can be as exciting as it is or mundane. It's really about what we choose to make of this life I guess. It can be about slaving away for the so-needed paycheck OR we can try to make it about something else. What that may be is any man's guess. Anyhow you're not alone, but you're also still young and your future isn't set in stone. You're living in an amazing city (which I am still very jealous about!) and you have an amazing, beautiful girlfriend, so I'm pretty sure you can find something that will lift you out of your proverbial basement sweatshop. And definitely work on your side projects. Those things make all the difference in the world! Don't get stuck Mike! You have a lot to live for! =) Hahaha… well your cynicism might be a little extreme, but not by much.

Thanks for the support Teri!! Reading my old posts written when I was a student, in their unbridled absurd glory, is more depressing than inspiring. I can't put my finger on it, but ever since I started working I felt very inhibited in expressing myself. It seriously is quite scary to think about. Employment = shut-up-and-work-until-you-die. Ok maybe that cynicism is a bit extreme, but it is a really sickening correlation for me to ponder. Is that the price one pays for selling his labor? Seems like a bum deal. I'm trying not to think about it too much these days. I'm working on a few side projects that hopefully will lift me out of this proverbial basement sweatshop. Anyway, I hope all is great with you. Any film projects or trips coming up? Aw! Thanks for the support Teri!! Reading my old posts written when I was a student, in their unbridled absurd glory, is more depressing than inspiring.

I know... I'm very late on the comment but I've been trying out the blogging sector of life myself and I'm unusually interested in blogs these days. Anyhow you shouldn't stop! You're a great writer... keep it up! Great blog post Mike!
