Not that it would matter to any of you, but I was just thinking about exploring alternate career options that would boost my income but still allow me to continue blogging about the soaps. Naturally, I turned to the soaps for inspiration.
I have been fascinated by the fact that All My Children's Kendall (Alicia Minshew) is at home while a substitute jail bird serves her prison sentence. We all know Zach (Thorsten Kaye) has the money to pay substitute jail bird girl for serving time so I was thinking I could rent myself out as a jail bird to serve a sentence for someone in trouble. As a writer, I could potentially write a blockbuster book about life on the inside and I am sure prisoners have computer access and cable television, so I could continue working on my soaps blogging career while sporting an orange jumpsuit. It would be worth the free meals and the free outfit alone! A Zach-like monthly stipend wouldn't hurt either.
This is one of those things that only happens on the soaps. It would be difficult at best to pull this off in the real world but it is represents an intriguing way to make a living. The Kendall substitute jail bird girl is fascinating, yet I am still struggling with Kendall's act these days. Zach has her kind of concealed in this secret room but when she manages to slink out of her hiding place it is for the sole purpose of spying on Zach and clunking any love interest he might have over the head with a laptop computer. She seems way to needy these days and it appears that asking Zach over and over again if he loves her is her main agenda. It's been a snoozer to say the least. I need to know more about this mysterious jail bird girl.
Oh, and speaking of jail bird girl, I suppose I should draft my Internet ad campaign to rent myself out as a jail bird. I know the prison population can be frightening but I suspect being a prisoner sit-in could be lucrative. Can anyone help me write my ad? I wonder if I could become a bar fly substitute instead. While it may not be quite as lucrative, it could frankly be a blast if you catch my drift--and perhaps a little less risky as long as I have a limo driver. Cabbing it on the soaps is simply way too tacky!
