Talk to the Goat
I'd go crazy in the house!
And it is a nice escape from Chris onece and awhile 
I know we both feel like that.
Hey when you find ur get rich or die trying scheme SHARE the wealth of knowledge!
But... but... you have to write a best-seller, because we want to be able to say "I knew her when she was this big"...!
The trick would be to write a book that's original. And luckily for you, you have no problem paving your own path.
Then just name it something like De DaVinci Code, and millions of people will read it. But then you'll get sued because it's not necessarily a true story, and your publishers will back you, and so will Oprah, but then they'll all dump you.
But you'll have your original piece.
Honestly, though, you've got a good base-audience. There are so many of your readers who want to read anything you write. And they'll all spread the word, and so on. So, like, enjoy and stuff.
And, um, draw your own cover.
LOL !
I see your logic Jay. (Which should scare me a little bit, since I don't have your writing talent)
I've no doubt, you will one day write your bestseller Jay! But yes, Jason shouldn't quit his day job, just yet. 
3T
I'd go with the best seller. Much less painful than a divorce and blow jobs for a 90 year old rich guy.
Make sure you come to St Louis for the booksigning..we'll go out for cocktails.
Made me laugh, yet again...!!!
You should write a marvelous best seller. I love your writing and I would buy it, in turn helping you to keep your work-free life and letting Jason quit his day job.
it's hard turning brain vomit into a cohesive story with enough pages to satisy a publisher and convince then to front your 40,000 pending publishing with royalties out teh wazoo - i think you can do it though!
I totally agree with you. I hate work and can easily and unashamidly admit it.
I hope that you find some way to stay the way you are happy. I'm writing also, but also at my own pace.
Anne is so right. Most of us come here because were making a similar sort of investment, like Jason...except rather than getting lots of money we just get kudos instead.
We can say "Well once upon a time she used to be my fan".
We'll tut and shake our heads and say "Yes, she's good...but I preferred her work before she sold out...."
And then we'll go home and pull out a well thumbed copy of "Jesus goes furniture shopping in Sweden" by Miss Jay from under our pillows.
Nor can I stand work. Physical labor is against my religion (I'm a Danian). Not only that, if I try to do any work, not only will I fuck it up but I will get the hives. That’s why I got a government job.
I used to say work fascinates me and that I could watch it all day. But the truth is it just bores the shit out of me unless there are very stupid people with power tools involved, hence, again, the government job.
lol...man you have me laughing. poor Jason.
All men are suckers for a good blowjob. Once the word "work" comes up...you go down.
This plan is foolproof until he's no longer able to get an erection. So figure, with viagra, you are set for life.
Work helps me pay for the things I like to do.
Little tip:
"Convince Jason that his manhood depends on his ability/willingness to provide."
That's your best chance. Go with that one.
Work is a word I try to use as little as possible in fear that people will actually think that I understand the concept and expect me to actually do it. In fact I tore that page out of my dictionary at home so I could further be excused for my ignorance.
I've tried every get rich quick scheme under the sun and failed miserably and ended up more broke than before, completely opposite of the desired goal. Thing with get rich quick schemes is that no matter what they tell you, you have to already have money to make money. Jackasses.
I would dearly love to sit at home all day and work on my drawings or even write. I'm a capable writer and love to read but again, that does sound a lot like work wich defeats the whole premise.
So until Mr.Man gets his ducks in a row and i can sit at home eating bon-bon's while he brings home the money, it's hi-ho, hi-ho off to work I go.
Jamie? I as of this moment officially have a blogcrush on you. A huge one. You're funny. You're a great gal and it jumps off the page. I'm not sure if I've told you before but there it is.
And you're just gonna have to deal with it, chuckie.
Oh. And those $12 cheques are income, you know. That adds up. Especially if they're from the US.
Just cause you don't make as much money as Mr. WearsActualPants does working for "The Man" doesn't mean it isn't worth counting.
Don't worry too soon, I've been getting away with it for the last twenty five years. His Lordship loves his work, it's his hobby, I love his work, it pays for my little hobby... shopping.
We all know that writing a best seller is no problem for you, after all we come here everyday just because we love to read what you have to say.
When you decide you're ready the pages will pour out and Jason will compalin that you never spend time with him, you'll be glued to the keyboard.
After all, look at how many fans you have now and you're not published yet.
Kitten,
You never disappoint me! Everyday I visit your blog and everyday I leave smiling.
One of these days we're going to be sitting on a patio, inhaling Dirty Martini's and passing more judgement than Whoppner as we critiques the lesser individuals walking past.
Just don't make it a treat for Jason to come home to you after a day at work. He'll continue to relish his "quiet place".
But don't make it so he hates you either. You keep his tummy content and he'll keep working so that you can pick out the groceries.
Two-way street? I think so.
It's nothing a little communication between you and Jason can't solve... even if it might mean work one day *sigh*
I have the same dilemma. I can't believe I've been getting away with it for so long.
I've got 4 years of uni to come, which should hopefully give me time to think of something else...
I think it's SO awesome that Jason is so supportive. He knows you're talented and he believes in you. That RAWKS!
Oh, do I have fantasies of not working. My bfriend isn't working right now...or he is supposedly freelancing. I'm jealous as hell. Though I think I'm buying dinner more often. THAT will end soon!

Who needs work when you can do not-work? I'm with you on this one. I'd rather do nothing than make money doing something.
Well, if you could find something you love (like an actual, paying writing gig) you might not hate work so bad. Have you looked into that, like at a paper or magazine even?
man this is another interesting read. i'm amused at your logic. oh what i'd give for manicure days!
you actually have a fourth choice, have Jason get a second job!
sugarier daddy -- too great a danger of becoming another Anna Nicole Smith, the family always sues;
his manhood -- too late for that, you got the guy hunting for pieces of chocolate in his jammies;
write a serious money-maker -- so many toenail colors, so little time.
That's it, Jason needs to be flipping burgers on the weekends!
I stayed at home for 2 and a half years and could not handle it anymore so no I am doing a temporty assignement for a local newspaper. I only work Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursdays so I have a long weekend every week and I can still so my things on a Monday and Tuesday. I could never go back to a mon to friday 8 to 5 job.
Morning Ms W W#nker, you're up late - your poor guy, he's living in hope and here you are exercising your creative muscle in the blogosphere?
do you have a cleaning lady, sounds to me like you have a pretty busy day, you might need to get one. better run that by jason, see what he thinks. maybe he can score some o/t
I just landed a new job with a big raise. My husband called me his sugar momma. I told him he is now my house boy. We may be able to work with this arrangement...
You know that push up bra thing never worked for me. I had to work until I retired. Bummer. Give me tits and i could rule the world.
You could write your own damn bible for your own damn religion, It worked great for L Ron Hubbard. Oh, and can I get on Jason's grandmom's mailing list?
Jason loves you so much that I'm sure he'll let you slide until you're 31 or 32.
Even then, you still have the push-up bra as a back-up. Cleavage is worth its weight in gold.
Get busy, for cryin' out loud. If I can attempt it, I have no doubt you can succeed.
Oh, to be a fly on the wall!
Wow I'd love to have a rich husband. But seriously I'll be bored to death if i were you. Keep writing Jamie - you're talented and someday you'll make it big.
Jay, Jay - I am shocked! You squeeze him out like a lemon but forget to save money for worser days!!!
But by the way how do you think to be able to write public stuff if you don't leave the house?
And further more if you don't get out - your skin will become grey and do you think he will love some one looking with 30 like 50?
He will swap you when you are 30 for two 15 year old girls (being happy to get half the money you cost)
- he is a business man!!! -
))
Amazing what push-up bras can do!
Keep up the writing, tis true about an art can't be rushed!
JeN - no worries. He loves work because he has this ginormous lunch sac that I fill with goodies. He gets to surprises himself with food all day long. He usually stays there until the food runs out.
DeAnn - that's what I'm doing at home. I work at home. I work on my writing.
Fish - I'm always up late. Having no schedule means my insomnia runs rampant. Because I don't HAVE to get up in the morning, I almost never operate on a real schedule. My norm is to sleep in the afternoons. For example, I just woke up.
BSS - thanks for looking out for me, but I don't need a cleaning lady. Jason does the cleaning on his days off.
Bornfool - I'm not so sure. The sad part is, Jason turns 30 well before I do, so time is limited.
Perhaps you would be bored to death if you were me, but I myself am not bored todeath. In fact, I can never find enough hours in teh day for all the things I like to do.
And also guys, it's not that I NEVER leave the house, I just don't go to work. I do leave the house daily. And frankly, um...I think I don't quite look 50 yet. In fact, I think a life of labour might be harsher on my skin than a life of idleness, but who knows....
here's what you do: start a church, your own religion. you don't have to pay taxes on the building, the land or your income.
and people will just put money in a plate for you, oftentimes cash.

I've been wanting to write a book for about 15 years now. Just never found a nice, hardworking man who worshipped me enough to let me stay home and do it. Life's a bitch.
I'm pulling for you, though.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.
Hi! Nice post Thanks for dropping by. Am adding you to my bloglines?
When you get the push-up bra - any chance of a photo?
;o)
I think you should write a series of stories about the modern "Lucy." "I Love Jay." Jason won't even have to learn to sing. You might have to come up with a couple of funny neighbors though just for some extra characters to play off of.
DB
I'm sending out prayers, spells and whatever else I can get my hands on, so that you can stay home for good and get that best seller on the shelves. Dammit I'm waiting to read it!!
Ooga Booga!
ach quit with the self doubt m'love - I think Jason has made a solid investment *grin* and even if he hasn't, he's just going to be so used to this state of affairs that it's only your own guilt that'll lead to a little part-time job...
But can I put in for a signed first copy now? I figure then I can be the first brit to own one...
May be time to get an extreme push up bra
I stick to telling people I'm retired or an entry-level crack head. Both seems to work equally well.
You are hillarious. I think you should write a book about this very topic. I'd buy it.
LOL Jay! I love it! Sometimes I feel like a freeloader, even though it's a lot of work, but I still wouldn't consider giving it up.
LOL! my beau should read you more often.
You could always become a con woman. Grifters are some of my best friends.
Princess presumptions ... come from a previous life. I know, I was one of those princesses and miss my servants and riches now.
Funny!!! I, like Di, was royalty in a past life. I do so miss it.....
Loved this post for your wit and Jason's support.
Work does not need to = producing $. He values your self-worth. So does my hubba hubba. That is priceless.
Sugarier Daddy.
If you haven't got there yet, I'll get in touch with the urbandictionary people on your behalf.
How are you going to write an entire bestseller with such an adversity to work or for that matter, recently finished nails?
first, i'm jealous that you get to stay home, paint your nails, and eat fritos (are they covered in chili btw?)
secondly, your hubby has it made...he gets 8hrs of jamie free time...could be worse, he could be like my hubby and work at the same damn place as his wife...he gets no free time (not to mention, i like to pretend that i'm the boss at both work and home
