I HAS JOB!!!!!

Kinda sorta. Part-time overnight stocker at WalMart. But hey - it's income. They called me a little while ago, and I start tomorrow afternoon, 4 hours, then 8 hours probably Sunday and for however long it takes to get trained in (I guess they've got some fancy-schmancy labeling system so they can keep track of inventory). And then I'll be going to the night shift, 2-4 days per week.

So yeah. Not exactly a job one looks forward to their whole life, but... At least this will pay the bills and allow me time for writing and home projects. And considering what my bank balance looks like - cobwebs - I'll take it, gladly.

Ironic, though. I started my very first job ever 40 years ago - in a grocery store. Funny how life turns out.

Yay! Hey, mentally undemanding work is great for writers. You can be thinking about writing the whole time. :D

Yeah, I think I'm ready for a job that I can just go in, do my thing, not have to have the responsibility for anyone's work except my own, not worry about keeping up with anything except what's right in front me or handling problems or anything else. A nice simple do-it-and-go-home job.

Oh I have to agree with that. While I'm doing my 'bake=off' I'm always writing in my head :-P
