I have a feeling that since the relaunch and reorientation of this blog I may come off as somewhat pompous or arrogant (sometimes ironically so… look, I started this sentence with “I”!) and I want to kind of explain why this is so.
- This is my writing style. Deal with it.
- I am pretty arrogant.
- Suck it down.
- I’m just kidding, I love you guys.
I say stuff like “I never want to work for anyone” not because I think having an employer is stupid, but because I don’t want to be “employed” and because I know I don’t have to be employed. I’m not gonna waste your time explaining my entire journey or whatever, but over the years I realized that the concept of me having a “job” or a “career” just sounds ridiculous. I’ve always been weird, I’ve always done my own thing (something which my teenage self never enjoyed much, but it was for the better) and I have to keep doing that because I only gots one life to live, baby. I’ve lived a relatively privileged life (compared to most Earthlings), I’m lucky enough to have been born with an unusually large amount of intelligence (thanks mom!) and have this internet thing which I believe to be some form of witchcraft. I learn things quickly, and WordPress is crazy awesome with a great community that is always willing to help. Domain and hosting costs are practically nothing.
So I’m trying to do this. But I’m not just trying, I am forcing myself to be confident and doing everything I can to make this happen.
Because then I will be happy for the rest of my life, and no laws will have to have been broken. Can’t ask for much more than that.
Happy Holidays, all!
