Full time

I started to write, then re-write this post numerous times. But the short of it is, this has now become my full-time job. Funny Name Media was started two years ago as a passing fancy, and its purpose has changed numerous times. I've been contemplating where I should take it as I've been getting less and less satisfied with the confines of a 9-5. I realize running this means MORE than 8 hours a day, but it's ultimately much more rewarding.
Today was my first full day working on my own and I haven't stopped working since 8am this morning with the exception of getting a haircut. It took until now(5pm) to actually finish this post as I've been too busy doing other things. I've dreamed of this day and feared it(in a good way), but I look forward to what the future brings.
Speaking of the future, I will be thinning out the herd, so to speak. I currently pen numerous blogs on various topics, and it's spreading me too thin. Time to re-align focus and follow my passions. Thank you for your support in the past, present, and future.

Stress makes the heart grow fonder

Right? Well in this case it does. I have a lot of very real and very daunting deadlines to work with at my day job. It's quite stressful doing the work of 4 to 5 people. The 'heart grow fonder' part comes in when I get home and go to work on Funny Name Media related items. Is there stress involved, of course, but I long for the stress of just one job. And I enjoy the work I do with FNM much more and that makes the stress much more bearable. My goal has always been to make FNM my full-time gig, and lately the projects I'm working on require full-time hours and close to full-time pay. The time may be soon, or my heart might collapse from the stress first. We'll find out...
