There are no pant-less options. In fact, for the second one, I need specially designed pants. And silly socks. There is literally nothing I can freelance at.

“Will do chemistry experiments for $$$.”

“Can fence for food.”

There are no pant-less options. In fact, for the second one, I need specially designed pants. And silly socks.

And my AmEx bill. Well, OK, all the bills. If it makes you feel any better, I have a full-time-pants-required job and I also burst into tears when I opened my gas bill. And my AmEx bill.

"Special" breed, I guess...

I've thought about it, and come to the conclusion I am not a good candidate for it. The bill collection would be what would do me in. I would be forever blowing off asking people to pay me, because it is cringe-inducing just thinking about it. Thus it would be more "free" than anything else. BTW, yes, they do mine salt! I saw it on "Dirty Jobs." I admire you for being a freelancer. I’ve thought about it, and come to the conclusion I am not a good candidate for it. The bill collection would be what would do me in.

I've been doing this for a year and a half now and I still can't find the balance between working hard when there is work to do and chilling the heck out when there isn't. People warn you about the ebbs & flows but they don't give you any instructions on how to deal with them like a sane person. I wish someone had offered me that course with the really long name.
