There goes a famous saying: Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life. Variously attributed to just about anyone smart who is both old and dead.

A Little Bit About Me It’s possible you might know me, but if you don’t: hi. I’m Professional Internet Wizard Contrariwise. I was born in the late 20th century on the West coast of America, but currently live in the sparkling southern-flavored Midwest[^Texas.]. Over the years I’ve done lots of things. I started my career in video games, worked on an MMO, burned out, did spreadsheets for nonprofits, got back in like with computers.
