I am sitting here today, with not too much to do (since I have been in trainings all week), and I am really in a funk. I need to be applying for an FTE (see five hours of time writing KSA’s for a position that you will probably not have a chance in hell of getting), but I cannot bring myself to start. I cannot figure it out either. Why can’t I just do it? Well, other than what I said just a second ago? I guess that a lot of it is because I get into times of my life where one thing or another is not really moving forward, and it causes a sort of funk. Now, I am not saying that my life sucks and everything is bad, in fact, that is far from the truth.
James and I are doing wonderfully. The house is really coming together, and we are finally working through some issues with that. (Side note: when painting, avoid the blue tape, it WILL stick to the paint, and it WILL pull it and drywall off of the wall… DON’T USE IT!) I am starting to be comfortable with myself, even though I have gained a little weight, I don’t fret too much about it, unlike I used to. I suppose that not going to Red Chair every Friday night has a little something to do with that. But honestly, I cannot put my finger on this funk. It comes and goes, sometimes by the day, and it only effects certain things. Today, it is effecting my ability to get started on this job application, and I fear that it will prevent me from even doing it. Not that it would be end of the world, because I doubt I will get it, as so many more qualified people are definitely applying. If anyone has any suggestions how to get out of this, I am all ears.

I thought it was really cute, and very funny. Amy Poehler is hilarious, and Tina Fey can really do no wrong in my eyes; everything I have ever seen from her is comedic gold. Also, Steve Martin may just be one of the funniest guys alive. He is just hilarious.

Good movie. Jim Sturgess is stunning. I really liked the story, and the plot "twist" elements.

Duane, my dear, you are in this funk due something called ‘life’. You are growing older by the day and you feel this inner desire to change the world and do something with yourself…other than work. If you can’t bring yourself to fill out that damn application - don’t - it is your inner child telling you that it doesn’t want you to. You and James need to spend more time having fun and less time working and that includes DIY projects.
Set yourself free - stop feeling like you have to be perfect at work and play. Love yourself. Change will come with or without your help. You will grow older and your body will change also - you are the best looking thing in Atlanta and always remember that!!!
Move on - that funk will pass. If you feel as if you are running in place - jump aside and do something different to add spice in your life. Life is too short to feel like you have to live a cookie cutter life for everyone else around you!!
Can’t wait to see you and James soon - I’ll beat that funk out of ya!! Just kidding!!
Honestly, that is better than what I could have expected to hear, thanks Wendy!! You are so right… in so many ways. Maybe I should step aside and try something else… and as for DIY, we are almost done, and will not be starting anything else for quite a while. Can’t wait to see you too!!!
