Ready Player None

Spent most of the day working on projects that made me super uncomfortable. Not because there was anything wrong, I just felt like I wasn’t ready so procrastination tried to take precedent. A million and one reasons later and I feel super accomplished. Today’s lesson: it takes the same amount of energy to come up with reasons to not do something as it does to just get it out of the way. Gonna write that on strip of paper and tape it to my laptop, because tomorrow’s a whole nother day.

Side Hustle Hard

Side hustles really took over for the ‘99 and the 2000’s. Random, enormously tedious, vastly underpaid. I’ve done everything from Postmates to background acting, they all end up not being worth the time and energy. I have friends and family who do Uber/Lyft, freelancing, hell even teaching kids in China how to speak English online. Nobody warned 80’s babies about this while they were shoving dreams of 4-year college degrees and a drug-free America down our throats. Thirty years into the future and there aren’t any mansions filled with nice cars and the kids we had with our celebrity crush like that game of MASH said would happen. But these degrees sure look nice on this fancy ass paper, and the weed around here is A-1.
