You know, or not.<br /><br />Mostly, I just paddle as fast as I can so I don't get swept over the rapids. I work on trying to make sure I have a few vestiges of a real life (you know, like friends) and occasionally exercise and meditate when I'm having delusional thoughts about balance.<br /><br />Also, I drink.<br /><br />That was really the answer you were looking for, right?Deborah Blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04032614187237072683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-422555164465305734.post-7534839902967983212015-01-21T11:11:00.081-08:002015-01-21T11:11:00.081-08:00I swear, the universe wanted me to see this post w...I swear, the universe wanted me to see this post when it went up yesterday. <br /><br />I'm actually considering working part-time (likely more than one job) instead of the FT gig I currently have. This is in large part because right now I a) work full time, b) work on weekends and sometimes weeknights as a professional burlesque performer, c) freelance write, and d) write fiction (my novel is going on submission to publishers starting tomorrow. This is a novel that took over four years to complete. I don't want my next one to take four more years.)<br /><br />So yeah, I WOULD like to work only part-time (which I guess I technically do now, if you count performing and writing, for which I am paid). <br /><br />That said, here is how I manage:<br /><br />Like you, I don't really watch TV. I don't OWN a TV. The exceptions to this are: a) I'll watch a Parks and Recreation or MST3K rerun while falling asleep, and b) I have a TV night once every week or two with one of my best friends. The latter is especially nice because it gets me out of the house, is relaxing, and is a nice chance for the two of us to spend time together, even if we're too zonked (he's a law student) to do much else.<br /><br />Also? SLEEP. As I've gotten older, this is especially important. I don't always get the requisite 8 hours, but if I don't get at least 7, I'm no good the next day (and if I'm going from work to barre class to rehearsal, my days can get quite long).<br /><br />Finally, I live in a city and therefore don't need a car. I take public transportation everywhere and it's excellent for writing - even if it's just scribbling down ideas.<br /><br />You are awesome, and an inspiration.
