I've been keeping this in the back of my head for a week, and still haven't come up with anything. Good luck in your search.

I've been a little stuck not having a plan for something (among my various hobbies and interests) that would lead to decent-paying work, but maybe just taking some classes would help figure it out. Yam: i'm not riding nearly enough lately, that's part of this, but i truly had a great time working at HC too, and that was part of the seed for all of this.

Sometimes just moving a pile of things from here to there, without questioning, without thought, can be refreshing. The joy of physical work can be quite an eye-opening experience when one is cube bound daily. This is also why I ride my bike to work. Sometimes The Animal needs to go out and run...
