The Freelance Retort: New Days Ahead

The Freelance Retort by Brian Moloney

So it seems my calendar has nearly used up all its days, again.

Which is disappointing because we talked about that.

But don’t worry, I’m gonna run out and pick up a new one—again— later today.

I’m still hoping the prices go down a bit more.

I never like to pay full price for days.

Why would I when I can wait and get them on the cheap.

Of course sometimes cheap days come with a price…so to speak…cheap or not.

Sometimes, the cheap discount days you buy from the guy behind the dumpster are a little shorter than the full price days you normally pick up at a reputable stationary or calendar store.

Yeah….

Sometimes by only a few minutes a day, but those minutes add up over…well, you know…time.

So you have to be careful because after a while you may find yourself, literally, a day late, if not a dollar short.

Plus it throws your scheduled DVR recordings all out of whack.

And if you find yourself with a calendar full of used days…well, you don’t even want to know.

Believe me, I know what I’m talking about. 2009 was such a weird year for me.

All because I wanted to save a few bucks.

I should have known something was up when the 9 looked suspiciously like a 7 with curly hair.

Short days are bad enough, but used days end up being nothing but a lot of hazy Déja Vue.

Yeah….

I mean who wants to relive that whole chiropodist thing, again.

Especially since it wasn’t even your original day to begin with.

And do you really want someone else experiencing that awkward encounter you had with….

For the rest of the story, or to just kill a couple of more minutes while you’re waiting for your new set of days to arrive...Please Click Here....
