Work...

is for saps, as a friend of a friend once said. While I like the job that I have and wouldn't trade it for another, I would trade in working, if I could. Of course, I say that as a working person, but would probably be bored out of my mind if I didn't have a job.

Still, it would be nice to be paid for just being me. To be paid for...

• Reading in bed
• Staying in my pjs all day
• Drinking cups of tea
• Watching Buffy and Angel and Starting Over
• Surfing the net for cool, inexpensive clothes and accessories
• The number of days gone without showering
• Doing loads of laundry
• Creating iPod playlists
• Playing computer games
• Taking walks
• Doing yoga
• Trying different flavors of ice cream
• Making and eating salads
• Number of glasses of fizzy water consummed
• Lipsyncing in the mirror
• Napping
• Learning to crochet

Of course, if anyone told me I had to do these things to get paid, my desire to do them would instantly wane. Curious how much I resist being told what to do by anyone, especially myself. Hmm...
