During the late 90's into the early part of the 21st Century my life had become the biggest nightmare I could have imagined. I had become a fat apathetic American working for one of the many fortune 500 corporate whores that own Warmerica.
I had a miserable 9-5 job that made me feel less than alive and I hated the ship of horrors my life had become. After 9-11 I decided to take control and live life to the fullest.
I would need a push out the door,Thanks Krissie!!, but I had already lost 70 pounds by that time, become vegetarian and had a plan. Unfortunatelly my plan didn't involve getting laid off a month after buying a house in a Boston suburb whose name ends in -ord. I was in a ball on the floor for 2 days after and then I remembered my plan.
Become a profesional storyteller.
It sounds ridiculous I know but since my life already had plenty of ridiculous in it, a Masters Degree in Folklore, I decided what the hell and began planning for world domination using the ancient art of storytelling.
I play a bunch of different instruments, make documentary films, tell stories to children of all ages at libraries, schools, senior centers in the New England area and beyond. I also drive one of the craziest camaro's your likely to ever see. More on that later.
If your 9-5 makes you feel less than alive my advice it to start hashing your own plan.
Cheers, Cliff
