What's an anachronist to do?

As I am rapidly approaching my layoff date (countdown: 3 days and 3 hours...) I find myself wondering what it is that I'll actually be doing, when I find myself another job.

As much as I love technology, I'm wishing for a simpler work environment. Of course I say that now. If I were handed a game testing job right now, I think I'd pee myself from the excitement.

I have several freelance illustration opportunites to work in fields that interest me. I could draw maps for Renaissance Adventures. I could do celtic designs for a leather artist at the RenFair. I could even start up my henna business again. I'm thinking I'll try and get a few freelance print and internet jobs for anachronistic businesses. Because Photoshop is really just a bunch of period medieval techniques.

Yeah, right.

What I REALLY should do is get off my butt and make a bunch of those funny t-shirts I've been coming up with for years. Because all I really know how to do well is satire and parody. Well, if I could make money making fun of things, that wouldn't be so bad.

Kind of like this blog, except a paid gig. hmmmm....
