I have a hard time remembering anything specific about the nineties except suddenly realizing that if I were ever going to write stories, I'd better get with it, because it was almost too late.Sacchi Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10801164916418570059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-83424947097239333882014-07-08T19:22:21.526-04:002014-07-08T19:22:21.526-04:00We are learning of your rich and varied career, JP...We are learning of your rich and varied career, JP, or maybe that should be several careers. Seems you get your jobs the old fashioned way- you fall into them. I've always appreciated the variety of things I've done in the name of making a living. In the best of circumstances, a new job can set us up for another chapter.Daddy Xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12927663248424944119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-31243673689460590882014-07-08T17:15:43.729-04:002014-07-08T17:15:43.729-04:00JP

A lot of days just suck, but time helps us see how they led to what we are today.

As much as it must have sucked to be unemployed or employed in some shaky money-earning scheme (like building a house on sand, to use a Biblical metaphor), you can get some interesting stories out of all this.Jean Robertahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08805088081675965859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9156334464585894857.post-83283561804351429622014-07-08T12:18:57.704-04:002014-07-08T12:18:57.704-04:00Gah.
