I can't believe I am actually forming my own corporation. To top it off in order to work at the IRS I have to register as a government contractor/vender so my company will be put on all of the gov. contractor lists. I didn't realize it but the big big downside is I won't start getting paid until Feb. 1st, leaving me all of January with nothing. So I will be canceling almost everything to survive, but I know I will be able to do it. I am actually setting this thing up, with the help of an accountant. It is very complicated. I don't think I realize how many forms and regulations I have to do. I will even have stock certificates, company bylaws, profit sharing, disability, invoicing, payroll and even quarterly board meetings. There is a 20 point checklist I have to maintain to keep things up to date. I will be working on my company business plans and website all next week and will have the unveiling before the 11th. Today I got the contract from MSD. It was the first correspondence for my company. It said Motivium Consulting ATTN: Brian Bass on it. I almost cried. The weird thing is, after all this is setup, I will go in on Monday the 11th, sit at a computer and do almost the exact same thing I did 6 months ago. Except this time I do have motivation. What a fitting name for my company, Motivium Consulting. The boss at MSD likes it too. Who knows I might even branch off into other things and actually grow this company into something bigger than just a job. I am thinking of using my musical skills to create music for corporate presentations. I might even hire some of my musician friends to help out. That would be fun as well. The futures so bright, I gotta wear shades. Or I could by a chicken and start a chicken farm...

Thought of the Day
"I've been reviewing Darren's internship journal. Doing laundry, mending chicken wire, high tea with a Mr. Newman?"
"Well, it all sounds pretty glamorous, but it's business as usual at Kramerica."
"Far as I can tell, your entire enterprise is little more than a solitary man with a messy apartment which may or may not contain a chicken."
