Starting next week I begin my first "real" job. I've been self employed in the Arts on a "show to show" basis for the past 10 years. However, I have a son now and I just couldn't pass up this job opportunity. It's a software company whose main application is a lighing design tool used extensively for theatre and concerts. I like to think I'll still be supporting the arts, just in a different way.

Best of all, they're cool with me working on shows on the side. This way, I can stay sane and not lose touch with that side of my brain. (the most important one imho)

Every sign points to this being the right move, but I'd be lying if I didn't admit to being nervous about something slipping away.
