slackluster (or… slack-lust)

I found an article on voulentary downsizing while surfing http://www.pseudofamous.com/ for the first time today. I haven’t read it all yet, but the gist of it was that there are these people who apparently don’t live month-to-month, and thus can afford to take lower paying jobs and work less. (or at least less-hard).

Well, whoop-de-fucking-do.

I guess this is a new idea or something… The fact that I (and millions of other people I’d imagine) have been looking for a way to make enough money to pay the bills while only working part-time is not, apparently.

As of quitting time yesterday, Laura had worked 24 hours in the last two days. The joys of christmas season at a photo lab… I don’t envy her, but it’s strange, she came home in a better mood than most days. Maybe it was the thought of that fat overtime paycheck.

I’m still at work at 6:30 on a friday, because this site was due at noon today, but I didn’t have all the creative until this morning. (OK, I guess I still don’t really have all the creative, but as much as I can do now is done.)

It’s dark outside, and my head is swimming. Maybe I should move to France, where I’ve heard the maximum work week is 35 hours.
