How amazing to spot. Kudos for finding the obvious, and pointing out to the rest of us who miss it. <BR/><BR/>You've given me something to chew on and I thank you for that.<BR/><BR/>Keep sharpening our minds dear Durham.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01172468643366922718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14226380.post-45329326036190188032009-03-23T16:39:00.000-07:002009-03-23T16:39:00.000-07:00sean, I wanted to let you know that I changed by U...sean, I wanted to let you know that I changed by URL.

It's the craziest feeling for people to ask what I do, and to be like "Yeah, I'm nineteen, not even done with my first year of higher education, and THIS is what I do, suckers," complete with growing a little bit taller during the sentence. But it makes me a jerk, because the week prior I was painting walls and filing light-gobos into the wee hours of the morning for minimum-minimum wage. My existence and my essence and my personality didn't change because I got a "better" job, but my attitude almost did. But you're right - a job title is nothing but a jacket.<BR/><BR/>I think people forget the truth in this post.

I hate people and the last thing I really want to do is get to know them...<BR/><BR/>2.
