I had this great idea for a blog about writing, but as the night wore on I wore down and I’m going to need to save all thoughts of innovation starvation for tomorrow. I’m a happy drained, because I spent the day doing what I love best, which is kicking back with loved ones and teaching Face to Face. Still, I face an uphill battle when it comes to the enormity of my workload and I still lack a certain level of motivation to get it all handled.
I don’t know what the deal is with that short of recognizing that there are some things in my life that are so overwhelming and depressing that the only way I’m capable of dealing with them is ignoring them. That feels quite universal. On the other hand, the manageable stuff gets handled and keeps me happy. I just feel the stress of the back burner way too much and way too hot on my skin.
Some Thoughts:
- It feels like I’ve been doing this longer than the numbers would indicate. It feels like a standard part of my life and, in some ways, a vindication of the argument of whether or not I can keep to something for any real amount of time.
- Back in F2F classes and it feels so good.
- The odd ‘cannot save’ glitch from wordpress is gonezo.
- It is sad that its come down to a woman we all love to hate and a man who we want to make fun of for the presidency. There are no real viable candidates in the ‘soul of the country’ vein, so I am still sticking with the policy wonk in Clinton. Trump is not the one.
