Addendum

It occurs to me suddenly that I've been waiting for the right time to quit my job and be homeless or something and depart from my worldly belongings. Perhaps this is an opportunity. So I put this question to you: should I quit my job suddenly and start a new life with nothing and do nothing but seek God, or is that wildly impractical?

That...blows...man, I'm sorry. I'm gonna pray for you in your search for where to go right now.

You could probably grade standardized tests with me while you look for a new job. 11.00 an hour, 35 hours a week (until June-ish).

It is wildly impractical, but you must remember that there are always ways to make money. If you felt like driving to Roseville for little pay, I'm sure Mike would give you a job again if he could. There's always slinging burgers (how's your spanish and/or ebonics?) or temp jobs.

It would be nice to see you at the ol' Milkbone (as it is affectionately called by those of us who wish to remain annonymous), but, as we all know, it doesn't pay.

I would say we could job hunt together since we have slightly similar interests, but I would be afraid we would become competition and we'd have to fight to the death.

I actually vote yes. It's totally impractical you're right, but that's just according to our capitalist culture, and if living on little means is a life experiment that appeals to you, there's no better time than now to try it out. You have lots of friends and family to watch your back, take the risk! Of course, it's easy for me to say that, since it's not my life... I just turned in two internship applications this morning...

That depends. Are you still in debt from school? If not, there's no time like the present. But make sure you know where God is calling you to before you quit. I've felt like dropping out of school recently, but I'm not sure where God is calling me so I haven't.
