Thursday, July 15, 2010. I have a little issue I'm wrestling with - finding a job/career that I care. About moderately and can make a decent living doing. I've had 'career' type jobs. Since college, but have never felt fulfilled or that I was utilizing a good. Chunk of my talents and gifts. It is a huge question that I don't expect you to. Answer, but I would LOVE some sort of steps I could take to start chopping this. Huge question down to more moderately-sized ones. Going back to school? This may be an...

The Doors and Ways: Ralph Wiggum Has Nothing On Me

I had a Jawa previously, which means I'll probably have to get the other 5 now. Vader, Chewie, Obi-Wan, Sand People, or DS Cmdr. Darby Harn is the author of.

The best one maybe the first:. 1 To me, the most important question to ask as I revise is: Am I bored here? A lot of the time as a writer, you spend so much time with something, you lose perspective on it. Writing a novel for me at least is something like a relationship, so I'd offer this thought:.

Wednesday, June 16, 2010. At Home IT Department. Dear At Home IT,. 2 Do toddlers really need "gadgets"? I mean. whatever happened to the old fashioned puzzle, lego and stacking rings?

West of the Loop. Not in it, but not totally out of it either. June 22, 2010. An SV Moms Group Book Club post: Girl in Translation.
