Exceptionally well written with more than one Big Lebowski reference but one minor correction...

"Since then, as Jeff Lebowski explains to Maude between hits on a postcoital roach, “my career has slowed down a little bit.”"

s/Jeff Lebowski/The Dude

I believe The Dude made that distinction very clear in the movie :)

Joking aside I truly admire this man's outlook and ability to take a pretty big setback and make a positive out of it.
