News:

TESTEMONAIL:  Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

Don't forget to add

Nigel - nervous breakdown, friendship roont.

Actually just change it to what Roger's is except instead of "friends moved away" it's "unrequited love for best friend resulting in crushed heart when best friend's wife moves back in, nervous breakdown ensues"

And also "Owes magazine $1400 for ads".

I've noticed that the uncontrollable crying is a little less jagged without alcohol, so the sobriety thing might really work out for me.

Not normally!

In 2007 I grossed 117k, netted 19k after paying all deductible expenses, which honestly was fucking awesome because that even covered my full-time assistant and childcare.

It's just that the combination of trying to come back from going part-time in 2008, and trying to cover all the household expenses after my  husband left, and the economy tanking, has left me marginal.

I'm coming out of it. It's not impossible to grow a business, even in a recession. I wish I was more energized and motivated right now, though, because what I need to be doing is producing exceptional work and submitting it to museums, magazines, galleries, etc. because the key to thriving in this business is getting published, getting sponsorships, getting your name out there. I have one very small sponsorship right now, but I could have had dozens more, and I missed two crucial submissions last year that could have really helped me.

In a perfect world, I'll someday have a partner who can do the full-time assistant thing, and I'll be able to support the household on my income because they'll handle all that other stuff so I can spend more time in the studio. I paid my assistant $35k/year, so if I had a live-in partner handling everything, I should easily be able to get back to that point and make a good living, and pay less in taxes too. Plus my house is paid off in only 14 more years...

Ah, daydreams.

Oh, and the reason I owe so much is that they have a bunch of publications, and somehow I managed to be in three of them in December, and then the Spring "Beads" issue is already billed.  :roll: So that's four months of advertising all at once. I'm going to ask my rep for a print schedule so this never happens again.

The good news is that I pull all ads in summer, so I should get caught up by then.
