I work in a museum. Today I got to play with\* Ashanti weapons and cunieform tablets. Awesome!

Isn’t it great to enjoy what you are doing? Early in my career I had the opportunity to do the telemetry for the development of the Sidewinder missile. I only had that much fun one other time (Well two other times but the second is a private matter). The other time was as an Aviation Cadet in primary training learning to fly an open cockpit biplane with helmet and goggles and the whole bit.

I also have a job I like. Mine’s only part-time but it looks good on my resume, pays reasonably well, has no commute and great hours.

Ain’t life grand? 😃
