I am currently in semi-retirement.

A few years ago, I decided that my life is worth far more than most employers can afford, and therefore I can not have a job. At least not a real job.
And so, after years of hesitation, in early 2006 I quit my easy-going job for the sake of reclaiming my life. It's not that I hated my job, it just wasn't enough. I was told as a child that I could do anything I put my mind to, and so help me God I'm going to try. You only get one shot at this, so I say do what you love. If you fuck it all up, well, at least it'll make for an interesting end. I might regret this path, but I know I'd regret much more if I never tried.
When I left my job, my co-workers were all very curious as to whether I felt I could find enough work to keep busy. I told them I never liked working much anyway. They looked awfully confused.
I now spend my time between many different hobbies, some of which I get paid for. I make photographs, design websites and prints, screen clothing, write music, and teach photography.

I know I'm not the first person to go about this. I don't have all the answers, but I'd like to think I have more answers than most kids my age. I guess we'll see when we're all on our deathbeds.
