i have a goal. well i have many many goals this year. lcd put all our goals in an excel spreadsheet. his job teaches him all this accountability stuff and so (hey why not) we are going to be tracking our progress. but the goal i'm talking about is the one where i depart from the corporate/contractor world within the next two years, quite possibly never to return. i ordered this book from amazon:
i ordered another one too. the thing about this goal is it is not allowed to fail. i really will need a way to make an income on a flexible schedule. in the meantime, i am teaching my first class for the semester next Thursday night, so another goal is to a) be a good teacher and b) not go insane. i'm also trying to think about politics a little. but not a lot. i do not have the space in my brain for a lot.

mj! we should talk. about the freelance thing. shoot ideas around. i think i'm starting a couple freelance thingies. i should order that book too. i should be like mj in every way, shape, and form. after all didn't someone think we were sisters?
i've toyed with the freelancing idea as well but haven't felt motivated enough to pursue it (it's been a long time since i've encouraged the writing bug). james wants me to write the next great american novel so we can live off of royalties for the rest of our fat rich lives. but then again he wanted me to study *real* hard and pass the Bar without going to law school so i could support us as a highly-paid no-nonsense lawyer. nevermind that i've always spelled it the "Barr" exam in my head.
at any rate, let us know if the book is helpful at all.
