Okay, I haven't written in a while. It's been 6 years. I hope this is worth waiting for. Nothing much has changed with me. I'm still looking for a job that turns me on. I mean, I have many jobs, but they're all part-timers. And I like doing them. I was watching an episode of MAD MEN, you know, the ad agency 1960s serial. The elevator was out of order and the two big time ad men actors (one was John Hamm, the other was John Slattery) had to walk up 23 floors to their office. The two, Don and Roger, barely made it up the elevators, what with all their smoking and drinking habits. These guys hadn't done an ounce of conditioning in their lives. Roger tossed his cookies after arriving on the 23rd. Walking stairs should not be that hard. Reminded me of the perils of not taking care of ourselves in life. Reminded me to work harder at my job-seeking and that I need to be able to climb my metaphorical (big word) stairs with a little more energy and a little more purpose. I talked to a career counselor and he said I needed more 'reflection' about what I do. So I got up this morning and stared at my reflection in the mirror while I brushed my teeth. I didn't see much beyond that I needed to clean my glasses. So the reflection thing hasn't worked so far. But i'll keep working on it. And I'll try to make sure that I can climb those stairs with a little more hard work and thinking about what I should do in life. Schmegley out.
