Thus'n'Such

More Starbucks today; started working the bar. Enjoyable enough. Had one too many mochas tho ... spent the rest of the day with a headache. Camstone came through the drive through, the silly fox. :) He had Sandy with him ... it was nice to see her again, even if it was briefly and through a window...

Good news ... both SJ and NN will be updated tomorrow! (Woohoo!)

Talked to Laurie about the possibility of moving to a much smaller place and other budget-cutting possibilities in order to write full-time while we both live off her salary ... but after the fact, wishing I hadn't said anything. I want to stand on my own two feet. She says that if I was committed to doing it, she'd be fine with it. But I wouldn't. I don't know why the idea comes forward from time to time, when I always have the same reaction afterwards.

I dunno, maybe this is why I like fantasy. It's simple. "There's the badguy. CHOP! Yay, good for you!"

Ah well. G'nite.

The problem I have is, as much as I want to be able to do something like that myself, I like my job too much. I really enjoy being a waiter. I was made for this as much as I was made to write. So when the two conflict, neither one really wins cause I want both

I don't know, every now and then I get the urge to want to grab a pencil and write out my resignation to my manager and go on to write a few books. But the idea of how "risky" that might be keeps killing that idea. Would be nice to be able to make something of my creativity, but seems like so many of my ideas are either unmarketable, or no one else would be interested period. So it's always back to the grindstone every day....

I hope you can make your dreams come true tho.... ::hugs::

Spiked Punch speaks the truth! Do not give up, Gneech. We won't let you!

Laurie is a very special person...

Dear the Gneech,
Cost-cutting will be important while you're under-employed. I can't imagine that working a Starbucks will be that mentally challenging... so use the time to either learn, or write.

You have the talent. You have the ability. You can accomplish anything that you set out to do.
