if you're overqualified, i'm in real trouble ... oh, and *hugs*

what do you do with a too-sober lawyer, scientist, teacher/educator, computer nerd with a horrific habit of being too damn honest, and asking too many bloody awkward questions.

i'm still amazed i got the dsp.

and angry that i may have to live on it for the rest of my unnatural life here on planet illiberal corporate consumption ...
