Dateline 3-27-2017

I don't really know why but I'm feeling pretty optimistic about this week and not in the fake it until you make it sort of way that I most often feel a positive outlook on life. A big part of it has to do with working a legitimate gig that will earn me a full week's paycheck for the first time in a while.

Though it does suck that this meaningless income, that will be gone the moment it's cashed, does more to validate my existence than my personal project that means the world to me, I do feel a sense of relief that I now know how I am going to pay for the very few expenses that I sometimes just have to live without.

Not only do I like the fact that I have a paycheck coming my way, but this was also the first time I worked a full-time schedule since starting my SNL review challenge. Granted, I only worked two days on said schedule and worked over eight hours each day, but in doing so, I can see in my head how life would be to work a job into this already busy schedule.

This blend of seeing the potential to mix work and play again and fantasizing of the frivolous spending I could do with a full-time salary has rekindled my enthusiasm for looking for my ways to bring in an income.

Hopefully, I'll find something more steady within the month because if not, I'll probably slip back into a slump for a while but don't worry, even if I do, I'm ten times better off than I was at this time last year and a hundred times better off than the year before that, so I'm definitely making progress and for those of you who have been sticking around for this, thank you for being part of the process.

Talk to you tomorrow,
