I'm sorry for you....I love my work! I get to build and improve cars for people and the reaction they have when they get them back is great. I never get up and even think about not going to work....I get to do what I enjoy for a living, may not be getting rich and things do often get tight but I am not going to stress out and get a heart attack from doing a job I hate.

Besides....as part of my job I get to work on and drive things like this :
if I did what you did, I would adore it too.....

I make collection calls- its SOOOOOOO fun.

I still got 24 days left... ICK ICK ICK!! However... I have already been to the beach, go every weekend... well, every day, oh.. I LIVE AT THE BEACH!

The best thing is, my wireless reaches to the sand, 100 steps from my front door. So, this summer will be me in my beach chair working, kid playing in the water... BBQs on our patio, cruising Main in my Stang at night.

Times like this I realize how good I really have it...

[looks around]

anyone awake?


Arin realizes, he is alone....it seems the nuclear fallout has eliminated all other beings....Arin thinks....what now? what is my purpose?

and then it hits him. Arin, now the soul surviving member of TMS, has inherited the site. there are no longer any boudaries for him, he can do as he pleases. but what is there to do? no one else exists?

Arin anounces to the lifeless forums around him that he is KING! if the forums could bow down.... they would, for anyone who survived a nuclear fallout is obviously omnipotent. Arin is confuesd as to what exaclty, he is to do. but then he remembers.

the fairies! it was them who launched the nuclear weapons in the first place! curse those evil typo fairies. many a time had Arin fallen vicitm to them. never again!

utilizing the resources of TMS Arin proceeds to build a digitized army of anti-fairy warriors. they will not sleep, they will not eat, and they will not stop until every fairy is hunted down and burned.

but will Arin ever be able to rid the cold lifeless planet of the fairies. not even he knows for sure, for he knows the journey will be long and hard...... what will become of this great young man, who, when forced into dire situations, cooly decides what is the best course of action? will he succeed? or will the typos of the fairies plague him forever

No...I work for myself and own my own shop in Odenville. I specialize in Mustangs but work on a lot of different cars as well.

We've got 48 cars here currently...mostly Mustangs.....swamped but I won't complain about being busy

The boss issue has nothing to do with it.....I can be harder on myself than a boss ever could be. If I had a boss I might work 9-5 but being my own I work often 7-7 or more 6 days a week(used to be 7 days but I forced myself to take a day off each week).

Thats the trap you fall into- my hubby is on the same merry go round. He works 24 hours a day- if the freaking phone rings which it forever does......

I had a bright idea to start an AR business for a flat rate per week- Only setting my own hours makes it easy to put things off until I get stressed out about it.

So I decided instead to be a desperate housewife 80% of the time.
