Like I Was Saying...
Still just enthralled by yesterday’s Mid-term election, even though what directly effects me has pretty much been decided. (Grin).
My interview went well today for the exception that I didn’t feel comfortable in my outfit. (Yes, I do worry about how I present myself). I really wish I could’ve fit into my suit, but the last time I wore that thing I was about ten pounds lighter and it still fit snug as a bug.
Remember, Chris Farley in Tommy Boy?
“Fat man in a little coat.” Yeah, that’s how I would’ve felt.
Other than filling awkward about my outfit, the interview went well. It occurred to me when I drove up that a) I haven’t interviewed in a year or so and b) I hadn’t done an in person interview in like five years. So that was different.
My last job interview was on Zoom and yes, I did wear pants.
I came home and worked on some signage for Rock Rugby and did some more scrolling on Twitter on the mid-terms.
I’m going to have to get rid of it again soon, because I’m telling you, that firehouse is so addictive.
I did create a new blog page today and changed the name of this blog to Skating the River.
I have an idea of what the new blog is going to be about, but waiting to pull the trigger on it.
Again, this newish blog, I don’t know what to call it yet is going to more akin to Eric Kim’s photography blog. I’m going to try to mimic his blog and thinking of being a bit more emphatic about some of my thoughts. For right now, this is an experiment of trying to mimic what someone else is doing to see if I can shake myself out this creative and general malaise I’m in right now.
I need to do something, but just keep getting in my own way.
The rule with the new blog is just to post something creative everyday. It could be a thought or a picture or whatever pops into my head.
I have this idea that if I were do something like this, then it’ll inspire me to get out more and do more things. To make it a point intentional about being more creative.
Like I’ve said, I have this vague notion of what I want to do in my head, but its the doing and enacting these notions I’m having trouble with right now.
And I’ve talked about this these last couple of days. The doing. That’s where I’m getting hung up on.
I don’t know when I want to launch it, but we’ll see.
