Tall Tale Tuesday

Hey, I just won

the MEGA MILLIONS LOTTERY!!!

okay, yeah... I'm lying.

who needs a day job?

Oh, that's right.

I do.

But if I could make enough money from music to pay all my bills AND get me and a family some health insurance?

Yeah, I'd be doing music. It's my love, my passion, and my creative release. It is what gets me through some of the days I've had at my day job. It is a total Jeckyll and Hyde situation - at work, I'm grumpy, irritable, arrogant, difficult to work with, tense, and not well pleased... probably not well liked either, given the description set before...

But when I'm playing music? I'm affable, bouncy, relaxed, upbeat, gregarious, and from what I've been told - funny and fun to be with.

But I guess that's what day jobs often end up being - all work and no play.

It's not that I don't do my job, though at times I really have to grit my teeth to make it through the day - but the atmosphere the company presents me with and the feelings they have engendered through our corporate step-parentage - ie. we're treated like black sheep, redheaded stepchildren at our office - doesn't exactly give me the motivation to come to work all happy and pleased.

Add to that the fact that the people whose company I have enjoyed working with, even through some stressful conflicts, have all quit and gone on to better, brighter skies and you're left with an uncool situation overall.

So here I come, Megamillions. The new winner you NEED to pick!

Hey, I could start a NEW company with THAT kind of cash!

Ahh...

dare to dream...

Ego

Which came first? Musicians or ego?

Let's discuss... you first.
