inspiration

this is a blog i found in my archives, saved as a draft from this summer (including the title):

that is it, all i wrote almost the entire summer.
note to self: let's not do that again.

Instead I work at strange times of the day, 4:30 in the morning for example, or closing a store at 9:30 pm and sometimes I do both of these on the same day. Some weeks I have very little work, and my paycheck is slim. In some weeks I do 2 weeks' worth of work. I remind myself regularly (usually around 4:07 a.m.) that I should be happy for three reasons:

1) I have a job (well, 2 actually)
2) I don't sit at either job, in front of a computer or otherwise
3) I don't work 8-5 and I can generally take as much time off as I like

Then I bundle up and hop on my bike in the starlight to open the coffee shop. You would think I might have some writing inspiration from that, but I guess I'm all out for the moment.
