Mister Freedom

A while back I made a promise to myself. No more all-nighters, no more taking on more freelance than I can handle, no more letting the job take over the person. And really, I've been doing remarkably well at it.

Until tonight. I'm stuck at work at 10:48 PM and I ain't going home until I churn out another 800 words for this Dragon article. Damn its eyes! The truth, of course, is if I had bothered to write this on a Saturday afternoon or something, I wouldn't be in this pickle, but damn it all, I want my Saturdays too.

I'm a greedy bastard.

And since I am trapped here thinking of freedom, I will share with all of you a picture of my idol, Mr. Freedom!

I have heard, whispered in dark corners, that there exists a way to harness the elusive power of the work/life balance - though many have quested for it, I amongst them, none have returned. Good luck :-)
