10 14 pm pdt   [ contracts ]

Rachel signed a freelance contract yesterday, for continuing graphic work on the new age show she has been writing for. She thought she was only going to have a few things to do, but by the end of the day (after meeting with the editor and director/producer), she is doing the credits, opening logo, and most of the graphics work. She made the director/producer promise not to give her any more work, but now she is swamped with freelance work for the month.

She also signed a second contract, accepting the job she has been debating taking. She faxed it out today. It makes her a little queasy to think about it. She has been taking a lot of deep breaths. She will be employed full time (without benefits) starting on June 12th.

It occurs to Rachel that she will be making nearly twice as much, on a monthly basis, doing freelance work as opposed to her office job. Now that's ironic.

one year ago today: "It finally dawned on me today that I am really on vacation. No more moving!"
