Although I try to avoid play-by-play announcements of my daily doings on this blog, every so often something happens – a major, life-changing event – that requires one of these updates. You know – deaths, breakups, sex changes, etc. So, I just wanted to tell all of you that…
I’m pregnant.
BAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Just kidding… but really I think it’s yours, so, ummmm call me?
Okay, really now – the news is, I’ve quit my job.
To write.
The next few months of my life are likely to consist of working my first freelance gig and figuring out what to do next, while also facing down the looming possibility of poverty and/or starvation (yes, starvation!), but I’ll still be posting here as per usual. If anyone has thoughts, advice, words of encouragement, criticism, etc, I urge you to send it my way (see top righthand section of page, also, pink.india.ink
I'm crossing my fingers that my new, temporary gig as a copywriter will still leave me with adequate downtime in which to write blog posts.
I’ve also realized that, now that I’m out of PR and don’t have to worry about the potential repercussions of a client seeing my blog, keeping my face hidden from the inter-world isn’t a priority anymore. So…
…hi there!
Love and kisses,
Kat

That picture is EXACTLY what I expected - totally adorable, and semi-insane. Also... isn't quitting PR like, the best feeling ever? I'll admit, I've become so fucking lazy at my job now because of the complete lack of stress. What? You want me to mail out this UPS?! Um, can I finish reading Jezebel first? No? GAHHHHHHHD *deep angsty teenage sigh*
Anyway, YAY! Congrats!! This totally deserves a round o' drinks!
This is awesome. Here's my advice, from one Hey, I'm Quitting My Career To Pursue Something Else Gal to another. When you hit a rough patch, as we who do this are wont to do, just repeat the mantra, "Change is good, change is good..." Love that pic, by the way, now I'll know how to recognize you for the September visit...just make sure you are wearing a wife beater and sticking your tongue out.
dude,
1. you are hot.
2. GOOD FOR YOU on quitting the shitty job. You are an inspiration.
Congratulations. I'm excited for you. And totally jealous.
Love the picture.
I'm drunk dialing (well, drunk commenting) wish you were at Moe's tonight, we could've bonded, but it's ok...I can wait till September - Cheers!
hey! congrats!!! now, to quote the old Soup Dragons song:
Your free, to do what you want, any old time.
...well, that was sad, i had a typo in quoting (paraphrasing, actually) a song lyric...
You're free, to do what you want, any old time.
...think of all that free time you'll have to proof and edit all your blog posts... a-ma-zing, isn't it?
Congrats, from a lurker.
i call you but...1) don't remember sleeping with you but i hope it was great...2)i don't have your number...3) that tongue scares me...4) who's going to be my suga momma now?
You're a brave a girl. I'm also thinking about quitting my job to write, but I haven't had the guts yet. Maybe this will help inspire me?
