I may have lost my job

Crap. I really don't want to go back into the work force. I've been writing like crazy, painting a bit here and there, creating new things daily, and making some great progress in the soul-searching and brain-exploring arenas. I've been a kept man, which is an incredible experience. On the side I've been doing a bit of telecommute for my old boss (the good one) to bring in the $200 a month we needed to make our financial situation work. Sarah's paycheck covers all our bills and money for restaurants and a movie quarterly, but the extra couple hundred I brought in allowed for 4-6 RPG books a year and gas to Portland every other month. However, I'm now forced to deal with the reality that I've probably been laid off. Certain permissions have been changed on the remote computers that put me on the wrong side of certain firewalls. The areas I can still access show that 40% of of my duties and projects are now being handled by someone else. So two weeks ago I emailed the boss and asked, kind cutely, if there was anything I need to know. It took him a week (and a second inquiry) to respond. His response was rather vague. He indicated taking certain things "back in-house" but didn't specify what they were. He ended with a statement that he'd be sending me a little extra money - but the wording was vague enough it could have meant bonus or severance package. So I immediately replied asking for clarification - and it's been a week without a word back. He's not typically the kind to go the passive-aggressive or non-committal route. He's probably just really busy - he has a day job and owns a game store, plus has a wife and child, so his schedule is just packed, I'm sure. He's an upstanding guy, a huge pleasure to work for, and I harbor no ill-will at all. I hope I still have my little job, but honestly I'd be happy just knowing. I could easily get a crap job somewhere that'd pay me a lot more, but I'd rather do something fun from home that is for a store I love. I'm certainly not going to go get a crap job when I don't know if I've been laid off or not. Grr. Communicate, please!

And it's all especially annoying because I can finally see the sun again from my "office" which makes the "-from-home" part of the job just that much better.
