Untitled 1 month ago

Still no progress on this front, I’m afraid. It’s a bit sad. I feel very frustrated.



increase my income (read all 3 entries…)
We'll see 6 months ago

Suddenly the stakes are high. I have 4 prospects for new opportunities. One involves my dream company; 2 involve celebrities (not necessarily looking forward to that drama) and one is a fall back that is a gamble…mainly subletting my apartment and hoping that it isn’t taken from me

When I look at things the way they are, I have to admit that I am grateful that I even have these opportunities. A year ago, 3 of the 4 would not have been possible.

I’m just trying to maintain my equilibrium in 2009. No extreme highs or lows. I did dip the other day dangerously down but a miraculous phone call out of nowhere from a friend truly saved me.

Twitter go to hell 6 months ago

Ok, I just opened a Twitter account b/c it’s pretty much expected of me since I’m in the digital industry. I can’t stand it so far. Just like I can’t stand Digg, MySpace or FaceBook. Perhaps it’s because I have the leisure time of an ant. Or maybe I am starting to feel closed in in a world where everyone knows who you are, where you are and what you are at all times.

But to those who love these and similar sites, rock on!

But I do love 43things and have since the first day i stumbled upon it. This and Swaptree are my faves.
