My Day Job: The Matrix, Chaos, and Freedom

The Matix can't tell you who you are . . .
Many actors and actor blogs, at some point, get around to talking about their "day job." I won't get into why this is, and or what a "day job" is to someone who's goal is to become a professional actor, but suffice to say that I've avoid the topic here since this blog's inception -- until now.

Now . . . I want to share.

Since my “career” (acting) is based on pretend and doesn't pay a cent (so far), I thought – “why should my day job be any different?”

So -- I’m proud to announce that I'm now a human warrior in “The World of Warcraft” (level 36, so far) in Azeroth defending the Alliance against the Kalimordor horde. I also made my “character” a hot HOT babe so all the big guys (human and non-human) will come to my rescue when I get into trouble – and it works!

I wrote an article about my new day job here:

What is the World of Warcraft? It's The Matrix (v1.0) And a Great Metaphor for Freedom (It's a Brave, New, and Scary Scary World)

I obviously have no real life to speak of – and ya know, I kind of like it that way . . . And now -- between acting and my “day job” -- my life (or lack of it) is in blissful harmonic alignment.

Money would just throw everything out of balance.
