okay, I just tweeted "Liberal TalkRadio Host" to @LeavittAlone hashtag #DreamJob

That's a difficult one. It must be something to do with books, animals and lazing on a porch with a tall glass of iced tea (non-sweet, with lemon; devil is in the details).

Professional Awesome Person

(thanks to a recent comment to friends about why I couldn't get paid for being awesome)

Coastal Heritage Consultant

Puppy overlord. I would be a benevolent ruler.

I always wanted Tom Pinch's job in Dickens' Martin Chuzzlewit. A mysterious unseen employer hires him to catalogue a roomful of books:

"In the meantime Tom attended to his duties daily, and made considerable progress with the books: which were already reduced to some sort of order, and made a great appearance in his fairly-written catalogue. During his business hours, he indulged himself occasionally with snatches of reading; which were often, indeed, a necessary part of his pursuit; and as he usually made bold to carry one of these goblin volumes home at night (always bringing it back again next morning, in case his strange employer should appear and ask what had become of it), he led a happy, quiet, studious kind of life, after his own heart."

And the hours are 9-4. Bliss.

Chronicler of Narnia. I'd sit around Cair Pavarel (sp?), arranging interviews with various folk, maybe going out to do some field research, but well after the battles were done and all the nasty creatures were taken off to jail.

Minecraft Design Consultant. Rich? Want to play Minecraft but don't feel like putting in the legwork to build your mansions, grow your villages, amass your diamonds? I can deliver a perfectly crafted ready to go Minecraft environment in as little as a month. ;-)

Cat-fur-deposit recipient of the highest professional order.

It's a difficult job: requires copious amounts of sitting about in comfy soft bathrobes and book reading to accommodate hours of catlapping.

The occupation I've long felt called to would be a Stalker into The ZONE as represented in Andrei Tarkovsky's film Stalker.
