As most of you might know already, I´m a musician. I´m playing music with a band (reggae), and a solo project (blues). I´m trying to keep the fun, and I don´t like selling what I´m loving, so I´m not making much money this way. To pay the bills, I had to start a "real" job :roll: So I´ll be walking the woods for the next four month, collecting geological data probing the ground to the depth of 2 meters. My job is to force something like a 2m hollow nail with a huge hammer into the ground and push it out again to get a look at the quality of the ground in the various depths. It´s nice working outdoors all day with all the fresh air, but its a very physical work, too, and I´m wery tired when the day´s done. So I may not be around regulary... I´ll check in as often as possible, though. :) ----------------------------------- Tormie Sunday, 04 June 2006, 12:40 AM ----------------------------------- Hi Andreas, it sounds like a very interesting job :thumb: . I think you're lucky :wink: and I hope you'll continue with your music too, I know exactly the feeling to have a job different from what I would like to do and I'm not the only one here, but life goes this way and I keep the funny moments for when I'm out of work :lol: . I hope to see you lurking around often as possible my friend :pray: :pray: :pray: ----------------------------------- Posy Sunday, 04 June 2006, 12:42 AM ----------------------------------- :-) Since when?

You know I am a musician as well and for me it did pay the bills. But when I had to cross the line and leave the music biz and got *Ahem* "a real job" :lmao: I was all bumbed. But you made my day my friend. You showed me that I'm not alone. So in some small way I thank you.
