new sport

I went to the pool last night. It was kickboard day. I relish in learning new sports; each activity introduces me to muscles that I didn't know existed. It's like acquiring a different body. Although I sometimes wished for a more athletic childhood, learning everything as an adult gives me tremendous pleasure. The mental and spiritual transformations are less noticeable but key to mastery; there must be acceptance for metamorphosis.

excitement

Ordered my business card and ready to work for myself! It feels great to have a contract lined up and maybe more opportunities on the horizon.

Amused because I have worked for a public agency, nonprofits, municipalities, law firms, solo practitioners, a Fortune 500 corporation, and a privately-held company. Self-employment seems like the natural next step.

On top of my core function, I have dealt with PR, Marketing, Operations, Legal, and even Management issues, so it seems logical that I would have to be THE BOSS.

Life makes sense if we just step back and let it all happen.

The celebration continues!!

social networking

Met up with several friends from around the country, and they all wondered why I am not on the IT social networking site.

Intuitively, people always appear as needed in my life. Currently, I am trying to pare down my life rather than meet more people as I have spent so much time on my social life that it has created conflict with my career and love life. Life seems to function well as is.

Case in point, I managed to get 7 people from 6 cities together for a ski trip in Salt Lake just fine.

If I need to be on a website to stay in touch with people, I would sign up.
