That’s the Sound of the Men Working on the Chain Ga—ang!

I’ve been working 10 and 11 hour days the last couple of days. It’s kickin’ me arse! But, considering I’ve been where I’ve been working for a little over a year, and this is the first big project I’ve seen to completion, I’m pretty happy.

As a kid, the “do nothing and get paid” job was the ultimate. However, you have to find something to do, else you go mad. Whether it is hefting a typewriter to stay in shape, digging a tunnel to freedom, or even plotting the deaths of your Viet Cong masters, you’ve gotta do what makes you happy, right? Right.

But– what makes you happy Ben? “Projects”? “Completion”? Or is it really “hookers” and “beer”, “copious amounts of” both?

would be a job of my hobbies, but in lieu of that, it is doing work for someone else who gives me money. not me sitting at work, doing little, and still getting paid, and NOT getting to do my hobbies. Boring and futile.

But is any kind of work sufficient?
