Soooo...now what?

 

Well, I am now officially 28 years old, unemployed, and taking art classes. This is not where I imagined I'd be at this point in my life.

Not that I ever really had any solid ideas for my future; more like odd disjointed daydreamings.

So, that's it. No more job. Now what? I have a thousand projects I want to work on, so now I just need to get off my ass and keep plodding away at them. Fundyville.com, Creationismsucks.com, other comic ideas, freelance illustration, web design, several different games, etc, etc.

What to do first? :confused:

Well, I suppose making some money would be good and all. Obviously I should work at something to bring home the bacon first...but which idea could possibly take off and help me pay for a couple cans of beans? Hmm. It's a little odd being older. I've just burned off six years of my life doing, well, nothing of any value. It wasn't even anything I enjoyed doing at all, and I certainly don't feel like I contributed one interesting or useful thing to society during my tenure at my un-named former employer.

The scary part is, now all of that is on me. I can't whine about my company not providing me a sense of personal fulfillment or value, I have to figure that part out myself. Sort of scary. :cry:

Because now, if things go bad, I've got no one to blame but me...
