It has been almost 2 weeks. Oops. Talk about losing track of time. The bottom line was didn't do any songs, trying to find job, life stressful, ugh.
Placeholder till I can get home and use the web to post. Weebly app has eaten my last 4 attempts at a post on this. Support is getting a strongly worded email from me. Cause that is reidiculous.

Soooo...yeah....no update really. In my defense, I have been applying for jobs and actually getting responses. I have an interview today. And another one on Thursday. I spent this weekend brushing up. Cause while you are working in it you don't need to know what LDAP stands for, they ask those kinds of uestions in a tech interview and for some reason I keep getting blindsided. (It stands for Lightweight Directory Activity Protocol). I intend to work on it tomorrow. Or Weds, depends. I still ahve to go in and get my ID renewed, cause it expired Thursdday. Sidenote, you have a year to renew a license or ID in Oregon state before you have to put in a new application. It is not considered non valid yet. That is good. Not that I expect other people to go by that rule when using it for ID, but there ya go.
I am currently sitting in a Peet's killing time until my interview. I should be working on a song right now. However all the tables are taken, and I am sitting up at the counter, which is hella uncomfortable. I also do not have my uke with me. I generally carry it around just about everywhere, but felt it may be over the top to bring it in to an interview. I need a collapsable travel uke that will fit in my bag. That would be awesome. There is a place onlline where they sell modular guitars. You can pull em apart and store em in a small space, then put em back together to play em without unstringing em. Pretty cool. I need one of those in uke. Though if I remember correctly it was electric, so you may not be able to play it without also lugging around an amp. Still working on getting to a place where I can animate. So nothing really to post yet, But I wanted to at least put something here so I don't completely forget to update this. Today is Feb 1st, which means a couple of things.
1. That FAWM (February Album Writing Month) is upon us. I didn't register yet, cause I wasn't sure I was going to try it. I think I will. I just need to get in there and register and get going on it. Now is a good time, because I am still waiting for a job. I can spend some of the waiting time writing music. I think I will try to post more about it this year. I vow to check in once a week at least for FAWM. Shall se see if that sticks? :P 2. Tomorrow is my birthday. I have no friends here yet. I turn 42. It kind of depresses me that I will turn an iconic number alone. I was going to try to go to an event going on where they are showing the movie Groundhog Day, with games and prizes, etc. Sounded nice and social for my birthday. However starting tonight there is a snow storm warning. Which means that once again, if it snows, the whole city will be at a standstill. I am living on a hill, which makes it even harder. I don't have a car, which also raises the difficulty level. The thought of looking for a place I don't know where it is, in a city I am still only vaguely familliar with, on a bus system I don't know yet, in weather that is possibly treacherous...Yeah, sadly, I will spend my birthday alone. I wanted to throw a party Douglas Adams would be proud of. But alas, moving too close to birthday and unemployment curtailed that idea months ago. Ah, well. Life will settle in eventually, right? It will all fall into place and all work out, etc etc etc. |
