Good luck in your continuing job search :D

Yeah, we'll see how it goes. I may have to get temp work anyway, Meiningers doesn't pay anything.

Good luck to you.
And you are right, your wife TOTALLY kicks ass.

She does, doesn't she? ;)

Glad to hear you're getting off your lazy freakin' ass and are going to get back into things man. You still using Razor Blades or was that just a high school thing? LOL.

Ya man - I work 9-5, get home and play with wife and kids until 9, then lock myself in my office until 2 or 3 in the morning either writing screenplays or editing current projects. You have to dedicate yourself completely to make shit happen.

As for your wife - you should be making her some fucking bacon and eggs for leveling out the playing field for ya.

She would eat neither. Maybe some tofu and edamame?

Absolutely not - they must both eat baCon and eggs....transition into the world of poetry, meat by-products and insulated medications.

OOO RA!

You know, I tried to make fucking bacon once, it didn't work out. the grease was nice and slippery but I'm just not goth enough to find the third degree burns erotic.

I'm wishing you all the best, sweets!

erthdic June 13 2006, 05:14:56 UTC

Aww shucks, don't put yourself out. I can get by on half the best. ;)

Luckily, I have an incredible wife that is willing and happy to support me in this endeavor. During a discussion of this, I accused her of not being supportive so far. She responded with, "Well, you have to actually DO something, so I can be supportive of it."

Wow.

I wish I had been bright enough to say this when my ex threw that accusation at me, which was often.
