Girls Are Pretty

As I write this I am a relative newcomer to Colorado, having finally fled Michigan in the fall of 2005. This move was about 3+ years in the making, and although I do not regret the time spent in MI I am glad that I was finally able to pull everything together. Michigan is a great place - lots of excellent mountain biking and some gorgeous outdoor scenery. Really great friends. Still I have few regrets leaving it behind, and am excited to enter into a new part of my life. Hand in hand with the move was my desire to form my own production management company – break the yoke of corporate America and all that (or just catapult myself to the top of the ladder and become corporate America). In essence I will be doing much of the same sort of thing that I have done in the past - with the notable exception that I am offering my services directly rather then being on the payroll of a production house. The theory is that this method will allow me to make more money, while having more free time. Downside of course is that when I'm not out on a show working I won't be bringing money in, but I'm pretending not to acknowledge that fact for now.

In an effort to meet new (pretty female) people, I made a recent foray into the exciting world of online dating. What could this possibly have to do with my new (lack of) employment? Actually they have a one incredibly similar trait - the waiting. I have yet to decide which is worse - waiting for a pretty female to respond to my inquiry, or waiting for a potential employer to call me with work. Initial thoughts of course point toward work, as without it life is much harder to maintain. On the other hand girls are pretty. This is no easy dilemma, while I'm sure the answer is out there both sides have compelling arguments.
