My girl reckons we are all a bunch of prtentious wankers who are given too much credit.
She might have a point. Although the way my weeks pan out I tend to get 10% interesting stuff and 70% blow a hole in my head tedium. (20% is spent on the web, hehe)

god rasko that reminds me of when i was made redundant 3 years ago - the first day of my new found freedom i went for a walk and realised for the first time that during the day my neighbourhood is totally ghetto - full of alcoholic ranters, daytime tv demographics and harmless but disconcerting mutterers from the special home down the road. it freaked me out! i didn't belong with them! or at least only if i'm skiving by choice! so i worked really hard on my portfolio and it paid off
a word of advice - do not go to the dss (that place reeks of despair) and do not turn on the telly before 6! daytime tv is actually powered by the souls of the people watching it, the more you watch the more hope you burn and before you know it you'll be a single mum crack addict on a council estate trying to feed 3 kids with supersaver vouchers at iceland

hahah and you're right.. no dss and no TV, totally depressing... I still have 3 weeks left to get the folio sorted etc etc... but wait.. if I turn into a 'single mum crack addict' do I get the err.. 'bits' as well?!

i guess once you're on crack you can imagine you got all the bits you want...? but surely those prosthetics you got across the road when you were spying on that couple will be fine for your purposes rasko?

Ditto on the daytime television. YOU MUST RESIST. Do not go on the dole either.
Glamorous? It can be, especially when you're living out of nice hotels and getting shuttled around the world for meetings. Getting sent to Paris to do 'research'. Fancy lunches at the Ivy, per diem and an expense account...
But when you start working for yourself, smoking rollies, and suing people who haven't paid you yet in court while waiting for replacement hard drives because your computer decided to take a dive. Telling your landlord that he'll be paid when you get paid. Spending your last 100 quid on inks and whatever is left over for food. Then it's not so glamorous.

See maybe glamorous is the wrong word to use after all... The gays saw it and now they are cruising this thread.
