A step up

So I have a job. (I HAVE A JOB. I wonder if I’ll ever get tired of saying that.) It doesn’t pay a whole lot, but enough to pay the monthly bills. It doesn’t pay enough to cover the medical bills or back taxes, so anything you throw my way from here on out will go into an account for Uncle Sugar — and also to file for bankruptcy (which now costs $1800).

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for keeping this writer afloat for the past two years. What a strange and wonderful bunch you are!

    Congratulations. I hope it works out for you. But just in case you might update your resume and recirculate it. Apparently, jobs are regularly offered to people who already have jobs. What a country.

    As the angel said, “Don’t be afraid. I have good news. Good news for everybody!”

    But especially for Susie…

    Congratulations!
    I hope it pays as well as Jim DeMint’s new gig.

    Congrats on the job. There’s a little something more coming.

    But on a somber note, I have seen all your FB postings on the school shooting this morning and as I log in here I am suddenly sketchy about your masthead. Any thought to a change?

    Health insurance is AWESOME!!!

    Good health is even better.

    Iless — you raise a very interesting conundrum.

    Susie, turning your masthead into a gun-free zone could be a powerful symbolic gesture at a time when the 2nd-amendment tide tide might finally be turning.
