working (too) hard?

Q: Dear Dr. Sadie: It's Friday, and I'm stuck at work.Where did I go wrong?
-Mario, Leblanc Canada

A: Mario, You didn't go wrong. You should be working! You should work saturdays too, and half of Sunday. That's the only way to ensure you will be properly miserable and angry, which is the natural state of all human beings. Please write me back Sunday from work so that I know you are doing your job.

acting like a kid?

Q: Dear Sadie,
I’m a 35 year-old struggling actor trying to make my big break. Should I get a job and move out of my parents basement and act part-time, or should I stay in their basement where I can afford to try to act full-time?

-Still Hoping, Burbank, California

A: This depends. You should stay in the basement and act full time if the role you're taking on is that of a free loading son. Get out in the world, get hungry, get lean, get mean, then get the one thing needed by all successeful actors: surgical enhancements. But you can't do that at home because you'll never earn enough dough, plus, they probably don't allow surgery in the basement.
