Comments on: I Thought You Said http://www.monstercommute.com/i-thought-you-said/ Web comic about about a monster world that's like 1984 meets the Wizard of OZ, on a steampunk highway.

The goal is to help parents prepare their children for the experience. I'll be working on a communications and partner plan to help get the word out. It will be a year of living at poverty level, but hopefully the beginning of more volunteer service in my life. And maybe some good connections with the state education department. I do what I do because some day I want to hear someone else say that I helped them achieve a goal. Working in retail and trying to write part-time isn't helping me reach my own goal. Other than that I make time for my family now. Later is too tenuous.

I enjoy the people that I work with and most of our clients. I have a great family, a small be fine group of close friends, and a much larger group of general friends and acquaintances. The trick seems to be balancing how much I invest in each group and making the most of each interaction, even if it is as simple as a comment to a company associated only by a common interest in a wondrous story and its author. Props to Daniel for his creation and this burgeoning community. I figure it is all about the relationships. I enjoy the people that I work with and most of our clients.

That works too. I'd just gotten off of the phone last night with my ma when I wrote that, and she was sounding a bit sad. Some of that transferred to me and made my guts squishy. Sure. That works too.

I have no kids that I know of to leave anything for, so no worries there. My only real goal these days is to outlive every one that's ever pissed me off, so I'll most likely never die. There's something to be said for sheer bloodymindedness. ;) I don’t “do” anything, I have no family left above ground to try to impress,not that I would worry about it if I did.
