Job woes...

Okay, which is worse for writing:

A job you hate that pays little in a field you're not entirely comfortable in.

A job you love that pays better in a field you love.

Answer: number 2.

Why? Because if you love the work, you're gonna pull OT. You're gonna pay attention at work and not think about your book. You're going to challenge yourself. Push yourself. Work yourself.

In short; I got a new job. (shhhh! Everyone will want one)

It's back to programming for me. Wading through code. Loving it. Reading it.

And it's going to kill all my free time. All my ability to do the things I love so much. All the time that I write during.

But how can I complain, getting to go back to my first love, back to programming? I am so conflicted over this! Happy and sad, gleeful and miserable. I'll be the first to admit this is what I've been trying to do since I got here. Now, I'm doing it! Yay! Only it's going to kill me.
