		<description><![CDATA[I haven&#8217;t posted in over two months. (Sometimes I wonder if I post more about not posting than about any other topic on this blog. Let&#8217;s remedy that. Post, Nicole!) This has largely been because I&#8217;ve been working a lot, which is good. But I&#8217;ll be honest and say that I haven&#8217;t been working enough [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
5 years ago, I started a social network. My network isn&#8217;t online though. It&#8217;s in-real-life, 3-D, grassroots social networking. It&#8217;s called the Odd Tuesday Potluck&#8230;
It all started in October of 2005, when I FINALLY moved back out of my parents&#8217; house, where I&#8217;d been since graduating from college in 2004. I&#8217;d been struggling to grow [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Opportunities tend to come in waves, following the season for rec sports, the schoolyear, etc. Which is why I learned to only make one commitment at a time. It&#8217;s easy to get to the beginning of a season or semester and pile on five new things.

		<description><![CDATA[In my opinion, the biggest difference between those who desire to be entrepreneurs versus those who prefer to be employees has to do with risk aversion. Most of my traditionally employed friends tell me that they couldn&#8217;t imagine not having the security of their jobs. They like and need the stable, dependable paychecks and benefits.
