I love doing contract work but I just don't have enough of it - my short term prospects are fine but my medium term prospects of 10 hours a week just isn't enough to survive on. :(

Since that is unlikely to change I have little choice but to apply for a job for the first time in 12 years. Its a Senior Rails job that will allow me to work remotely (from home) for a company in the education sector. I am very nervous about it. It sounds like an awesome opportunity.

But I wish so hard I didn't have to do this...
