Wait.  I think I'm not quite doing this right yet.

I snuffed the spark of life within so that my existence is binary: work or no work. Sometimes there are conflicts, but switch only move up or down. Simplicity.

I can't imagine working for someone else. Even my clients are just along for the ride most of the time.
