OK that was fun last night. Got to blow off a little steam. Funny enough I did catch some Without A Trace and at some point I fell asleep. My wife came and woke me up on the couch. Luckily I didn’t wake up in Portland, or Seattle or in some strange place. I have to finish one project and then I will move on to what I really love to do – recording tutorials. That’s what I really enjoy. When I am feeling the way I was feeling last night it means that it’s time to do something different. One thing is to take one day out, completely ignore the phone and my e-mails and just do what I love to do. It often means taking another day out and hitting the couch. Nothing but TV and PS3 all day. And now another reason I love Evernote – I had notes on how to link to a specific location within a page and I just searched my Evernote for “Anchor tags” and there it was, so I was able to link the words “Without A Trace” to a spot directly above where I was talking about it in last night’s post.
Now I need to post some pictures of some people who I saw recently at a celebration for someone who is very dear to me.
This just in!.. Got an e-mail with the last of what I need to finish a project I am dying to get off my desk! Yay!!
I think we all have those days. Mine come and go. It’s a matter of choosing which battles to fight and which to surrender. I got the wrath yesterday after planning my early dinner with you and Adam. I felt I had done the right thing by inviting the family, making arrangements based on the family, and so on. Turns out I had it bass ackwards and they didn’t want to go. I had assumed, like I always do, that my family should follow me everywhere. After the blow up, I went for a nice long hike, came home and it was resolved. Next time I plan something I will tell my wife before I make it concrete, let her know perfectly well all the details, and base my actions on what she feels. It’s funny how after 10 years I still don’t have everything right, I’m getting better in some areas, (and when she notices, she comments) but other’s I have trouble with. Just one of those things my friend. No matter what your day was like, there’s always another one tomorrow. All we can do is sleep, forgive, and start fresh. Have a great Saturday my friend, if you do see Adam today, tell him I said hi. It won’t be long before we meet, just need to stay away from family holidays.
