lots - part iii

[... continued]

i had a long chat with my mother this morning - we haven't spoken in a while - during which a plan hatched regarding my next steps post-horror. when this semester is over, i'm going to take a holiday and start interviewing in montreal. if someone wants me, they can take me on and pay me as an outsourced entity (i can bill, now) until all the bureaucratic nonsense can get sorted out. in other news, my mother's in a good place and that makes me happy :)

after lunch and an episode of hellsing, i passed out on the couch for the deepest, soundest sleep imaginable. it took a ridiculous argument over my ability to discern bottles of pills and cleanliness when i'm half-asleep to wake me up, and since then i've been installing (just finished - boy, this post sure did run on).

---i live without cash – and i manage just fine: i'm a free-market capitalist anarchist hippie and i believe in the finer things in life even while i believe in doing as little bad / as much good for the environment as possible to make up for my consumption. i was curious as to whether the article discusses "managing" or "living great", because the latter is infinitely preferable.

having read it: he's not wrong. i'm not sure i'd be able to do that and follow my dream to save our species in a different way, but he's definitely better for our world than most of us and what he says about stress and work is 100% correct. just yesterday, the unprofessional laughed at me for accepting such a low wage so that i could work half-time and study with the rest of it.

greed is not good.
