Look into recording for the blind and dyslexic
Alas... 2 years ago

I did this—that is, looked into it. Turns out there’s no studio within about 1000 miles. So, that’s not going to work out. I’ll have to stick with just the cat shelter and the BFS stuff for now, I guess.

Oh well. I wanted to at least look into it, and I did finally get around to that. So all in all, a success. Now I know.

Support myself doing something I love
Okay! 2 years ago

Well. I’ve applied for what seems like about the perfect job for me, so we’ll see if I get it. Telecommuting, part-time, probably pays decently based on the one salary listed on the site (that being for interns… who always get paid the least, right?). And I’d be good at it, and dealing with something I enjoy. I don’t know that it’s a =career=, though. Like with all things computer-based… how long will it last? I just have to hope it turns out to be one of the long-lived ones. And that I get the position!

Meanwhile… I should be getting myself set up again to get freelance design work. Not sure why I don’t want to. And I need to put some more effort into all my other potential enterprises… if I started the shirt thing even though I’d have to use one of those annoying services, at least I might make some money to get it going the way I =want= it, with good quality, ethically produced products at reasonable prices. I should do the research on that over; it’s been at least a year.

Maybe I should give myself a 40 hour work-week, and just insist that I do 40 hours of work on my myriad projects (less paid work time if… WHEN I get some) each week. I’d get a lot more done, certainly. The sleep issue does mean I’d have to be flexible… but it would also be good discipline-exercise.

Hmm.

Apply for that job! (read all 3 entries…)
Why I'm 'giving up' on this one... 2 years ago

Like I said in the last entry for it… L’s pretty much convinced me it would look “desperate”. I don’t want to risk the job I already applied for with the company on that. I’m pretty sure I want job #1 more. So… I could just remove the goal, but I want to keep my entries, so I can see them later and see why I made the decision. Thus, the give-up page. If I don’t get job #1 (oh please let me get it), then I’ll apply for job #2, assuming it’s still there. If I do… then it’ll be moot. And like I said… really this does kind of fall under “Support myself doing something I love” already. So… it’s redundant AND potentially unwise, and I have so many other things I can’t fit on the list. Sorry, goal, but you’ve been cut.
