Meg Has Gone Bye-Bye, Egon.

First off an apology to all three or four of you who have started to read my blog on a regular basis. I have not posted in a few days and quite frankly I almost stopped writing it altogether because, ahem . . .
I GOT A JOB!!!!!!!!!!

That’s right – I got a really real job that makes really real money. And it’s with this amazing new company:

Paduta collects new music from indie artists from all genres who either are not signed to any label or who have created their own label to produce and release their music and posts their music in an interactive forum where they can gain exposure and read feedback from listeners.

It’s also less expensive then iTunes, and features a blog, reviews, along with links to artists’ web pages. I’ve already written some reviews for this site, but on Monday my boss asked if I wanted to take on the responsibility of promoting the site, writing their blog, and scouting for more music.

Yep. I’m still pinching myself.

So I was torn about continuing this blog. I mean, originally the whole point was to talk about my struggle to find a job – and, not to brag but, ahem . . .

I GOT ONE!!!!!!!!!!!!! (That was a la Janine Melnitz from Ghostbusters, in case you were curious.)

Whoa, wait a minute: Janine Melnitz was played by Annie Potts. And Annie Potts was a . . .

Designing Woman!!!
But, after talking to a few of the members of the S.P.M.B. Fan Club, I realized that I needed to keep this going. And ironically enough, I have never been in this position before. You see, I’ve been hired by Paduta as an independent contractor. That means I’m essentially my own company. I make my own hours. I had to write a business proposal! I’m getting business cards!!!

This isn’t Starbucks anymore, Toto. This is the really real world. You have to turn off the T.V., and stop planting new crops on your “Country Life” farm and get on the ball!
I’m a business woman now and I need to get to work because I only have one jacket with shoulder pads!

Quick! To Dress Barn for Women!

Keep checking back to read about fun things like buying office supplies, traveling on the company dime, and crapping myself all the time.

And thanks!
