Thinkin' and a hopin'

Last night I dreamed I was offered job. A part-time gig managing community hosts for a small firm in Maryland. The details were scarily specific. I can't recall a dream I remember the details of with such accuracy, and it took me several long moments to convince myself it was not true as I woke up.

While I still thought it was real, I began to panic that I hadn't asked enough questions and that I might not be good at it. I also was worried that working part-time I might not be able to do all the magical plans that keep popping up in my head. More and more I'm feeling like this hiatus is really meant to be a well to be dipped into, to drink up. And damnit, Mr. Job, I'm not ready to be nailed down.

I don't want to take the wrong job -- just to rejoin the working world. I came across a job at my old massage school that I would be perfect for (part-time book keeper....in a very mellow environment). That's pretty much the opposite of what I've been doing -- and yes, a bit lower in the brain cell demand department. But in many ways it could be perfect. I think I have to apply just to see how it goes. I don't have to take it, and it would be a good  opportunity to get my foot back into the awareness of the education and alt medicine world.

Yesterday was a day of brain food. Lunch with M and coffee with E was really good for my soul. Plus the fish tacos at Austin Grill are quite yummy. M suggested I look into the world of microblogging and try to join a collective, and reminded me of the meetup world. Also bar-camps for site and application development. There is so much to do. Truly, this could easily get out of hand.

For now, I'm enjoying the quiet of the back porch, and the jays and mockingbirds who are calling to their loves. It's dim and grey, a perfect day to hit American History and yoga class. This afternoon I'm writing two cover letters. As Pablo says, it's an ambitious day, but I'm going to accomplish a lot!

So there. Look what awaits me when I finish.
