I'm doing 32 things
Yeah, like this’ll ever happen. It’s not that I like clutter. I just don’t make cleaning a high priority. Or really, any priority at all.

No, I don’t mean go out and take “lessons” or anything. The only place I sing well is in my car. I want to do it and not make a fool out of myself nonetheless. And no, karaoke is not a satisfying substitute.
I’ve recently lost my main source of income—I worked as a home-based independent contractor for a particular company, and although I was free to pursue other opportunities, the reality was that there just wasn’t time to cultivate new income streams, so that was essentially my job. Made a few additional bucks here and there, but that was it. Now, that contract has ended, and I want to continue freelancing in my field (writing/copyediting) and see if I can make any money off some of my side interests. Alas, I have a severe case of adrenalitis and have found it difficult to focus on making contacts while distracted by my father, hospitalized two hours from here. I have sent out some feelers, but not as many as I’d hoped I would, and darn it, clients aren’t just magically appearing at my door!
