The other day S told me, "I posted something on the blog. It's a little different from the usual posts about babies and crafts."
Excuse me? What did you say? What are you trying to insinuate, mister?
We don't have a baby! So, really just crafts. Get it right!
Finally, FINALLY I am starting to feel some forward motion in my life. Nothing's really happening, nothing new anyway, but something kicked me out of the rut that I was calling home.
My home sweet rut looked something like this-
I should look for a job in OKC, eh...
I should practice something musical that I do for a living, eh...
Go for a run? eh...
You're doing that 3-day thing again, maybe you should fund raise, eh...
Call your friend, eh...
Let's choose some more PhD programs! eh...
Sensing a theme? Do you get this way or is it just my lazy self?
Well, I sold the rut for a nice profit (changed the flooring, added an island to the kitchen...it really brought up the value) and am moving forward slowly. Moving forward slowly looks something like this-
Oh, there's my resume.
I could do that job, I guess.
Good morning Buddy, let's get out of bed.
Call the dentist.
Roast a chicken.
I'm headed downstairs now to roast a chicken. I am terrified of the giblets that I will have to extract. Terrified. Wish me luck.
Psst...I want to make an envy-inducing slide show of our Alaska pictures to share on here but I am not motivated to figure out how to do it! Any suggestions?

ReplyDeleteand good luck with that chicken roasting. let me know how it goes!
I used to use rockyou.com for slideshows. http://www.rockyou.com/slideshow-create.php
or, I now use animoto. there's a free version that does 30 second videos or I can tell you how to log into my account and you can make a full length one. I'd be glad for you to use it!!!
Do you have a mac? If so, you could spend days and days making a gorgeous photo-filled MOVIE in iMovie. It's really quite easy once you play with it for a few minutes, and you can time the music to go with the switches and whatnot. Then you could burn it onto a DVD to keep forever (or until DVDs are old and defunct), which would be REALLY impressive. :)
ReplyDeleteYOU CAN DO IT!! [Whatever "it" is...] Sometimes I think we need the ruts. They're useful for something.
