Brother. Can you spare a dime.

It is funny and almost perfect that at the exact moment that my career seems to be taking off like a rocket ship,
the country is stuck in a free fall recession the likes of which we haven't seen since the depression. I am not complaining or anything, but shit, is this is what getting a break is supposed to look like? I mean, I am getting these pretty great opportunities
but it all seems to be happening at the moment that everyone collectively has decided to tighten their belts and
their grips on the old wallet.
So I am hanging my shingle out there trying to get some work as a contractor again. No time to complain. Lucky for me I didn't sell off my tools when I attempted to quit my day job.
If it weren't for all of the irony here, I would be totally depressed by now.
