Okay, I’m following my own advice.  I, once again, have a steady day job.  It’s been a year since I left the day job world and now I’m back in it.  I have had several odd jobs to supplement my music gigs over the past year, but this job is full time with lunch breaks, training, and schedules.  I keep hoping that some one is going to come up to me and say, “Rebecca you are too talented to be working that silly day job.  I can’t believe a musician of your caliber has been forced to stoop to such a painfully low level.  Let me help you get out of this situation.  Please join my tour and come play your music for great money.”  I know people are wondering why I’m working this job.  People come in and see me behind the counter and do a double-take and then ask questions like, “what are you doing here?” and “are you playing anywhere anytime soon?”  It’s not a good feeling.  I hate having to answer these questions.  My pride has never been so tough to swallow, but I’m doing it.  Fuck.
