Random Thoughts for a Thursday

Wow! There is less than one month to go until The Big Interview. I am trying to brainstorm, come up with talking points that showcase how Awesome I Am and how I Will Be An Excellent Choice. I am feeling fairly confident - let's hope that I can hold onto that feeling! My current day job has a ton of downtime, and while that can make it boring and monotonous at times, I've been trying to use it to research areas of professional interest and to make myself a smarter cookie (I just did a google image search to see if I could find a photo of cookies spelling out a math equation or something along those lines, and there WEREN'T ANY! This seems like an untapped market - if The Big Interview doesn't work out, maybe this can be my business).

I skipped Deerhoof/No Age last night. I'm pretty sad about it, because I love both of those bands... but I have been so tired this week that the last thing I could imagine was staying out till two am on a worknight. I justified it to myself by deciding that instead of going out and dancing all night, I'd go to the gym or do my new yoga dvd (yes, you can laugh at me for this one). Well, I didn't do either. I stayed home and flipped between Futurama and Iron Chef: America, and went to bed at 10. I think I made the right decision, despite Mark's tsk-tsk'ing this morning. My body and mind are happy and loving me today for resting both of them last night. I got so much sleep!

One final, very important note: Thank you so much to all of the people who congratulated me on my last post, and who helped out with the thing that led to the thing in the post (haha, I am being SO VAGUE!). You guys are awesome and make me feel good about myself and my friends and my life, and I wish that more kudos had been given to everyone who helped me get to Ghana, because there is no way I could have done it on my own.

I can't WAIT until I get a new computer so that I can start posting photos and music again. This blog has been so boring lately.
