Semi Adult

It has been brought to our attention (thanks Morgan) that we never addressed the fact that Aldous and I have rejoined the workforce. Let’s be clear — we’re freelancing and we’re only doing it cause they’re paying us in gold and threw in chauffeurs with 24 hour access. It’s really weird working again (oh and awful) after loving the life of unemployment. We were a rare specimen, probably the only two on the planet, who were unemployed, not even thinking about going back to work and not caring. We kind of didn’t realize that the rest of the world has been panicking about “finding work” and “paying bills” and “feeding my children”, all that crap. So after months of answering the question “what do you do?” with “be awesome, work out, watch One Tree Hill and drink for free”, I now have to say, “ugh, I work in advertising”. After I explain to people how much I hate it ,everyone has the same response “you’re lucky you have a job!”. WTF?! Lucky to have a job?! Well this must be the worst luck ever. Luck was sitting on the couch watching Hoda & Kathie Lee and waiting on the stoop for the mailman everyday. People have got their priorities out of wack. I’m more embarrassed to say that I have a job than I ever was saying I was unemployed. However; based on my productivity and dedication levels I doubt it will be long before I’m back on the couch, man, those were the days.
