Learn to fly. Now do it backwards! 2008-09-30 20:08:19 And so it seems that a whole pile of I-told-you-so's are in order... all directed at me, of course.Ah yes, my foolproof plan of graduating college with my BA in English and having the media and publishing worlds knocking down my door with job offers and book deals seems to have hit a snag.You need actual experience to get hired to do something.

I plan to be foaming at the mouth later on while watching extensive live ballot-counting action, but for now, I am satisfied that I have voted and am moving on to boost my "freelance writing" career as best I can from the comfort of my laptop.I did spend much of the day handing out donation materials and speaking with upscale business owners about the upcoming America
