Still Around

I'm still slugging it out in part-time and freelance world. A job I'm supposed to have been offered was to start today, but there is still not a fulltimer in place. Right now it's being done by someone who has another position, and I don't think he's too happy about it. One of the people doing the hiring is apparently telling people I'm going to be doing the job. Funny thing is, he hasn't told me. Or asked me. Or discussed it with me at all. I haven't gotten the opportunity to negotiate a fabulous salary or perks. His assumptions are annoying, to say the least. I hope he doesn't think I'm so anxious to take this job that I'll run after any carrot he dangles in front of me. I've done it before, and I won't do it again. I don't believe this is my dream job, and I'm not going to risk having a building, festering resentment toward him, the company, the job, and myself. I've had enough of that, thank you. Must...stay...strong. I have to turn this down if it's not right. I know I deserve something good.

One of the reasons I haven't blogged lately is one of my dirty little secrets--addiction to stupid, useless, time-wasting computer games. I think I'm ruining my eyesight and I'm certainly getting nothing accomplished. I daydream all of the time about my successful screenwriting career, and yet, I write nothing. I also have so many other things I could do, yet I piss my time away with stupidity. What's up with that?
