go at least 5 places I've never been
Road Trip

Planned for June that should take care of this goal: assuming we make our budget for it.
1. Bisti (not part of trip)
2. Redwoods
3. San Francisco
4. Portland
5. Seattle
6. Glacier
7. Yosemite
Plus a whole lot of other stops along the way. Should be fun!!



get a better job (read all 8 entries…)
It could have gone better...

I got pretty nervous and I just don’t think I really highlighted my skills and expertise well enough.
I mean it wasn’t a disaster, maybe I did better than I think but I was so friggin’ nervous! The interview was before a panel of six people! In a small dark room with no windows, and there was one person who would ask a question and then time my responses (5 min time limit).
Who wouldn’t find that nerve wracking, right??

The job and I are a great match but I’m just not sure I communicated that effectively because I was so nervous and didn’t project confidence in my own abilities.
Sigh… I guess I’ll have to wait and see but I don’t feel too positive about it right now.



stop putting energy into things with no benefit for that energy
Coworker temper tantrums

I am doing my best not to spend any energy worrying about this guy’s moody little hissy fits. It’s my impulse to always take responsibility for what others are feeling and I’m NOT DOING IT THIS TIME. I’m NOT.
I’m NOT I’m NOT I’m NOT.
And now… I’m letting it go…
