choke on that causality

I just got home from giving the puppies a walk. It is so freakin hot and humid out there. And it’s not really even as bad as it has been. It’s been 90s and 90% humidity for a few days now…and today it was a little more breatheable. 80’s and 50-60% humidity. Every time I start bitching about the hot weather…I have to remind myself that it is MUCH MUCH MUCH BETTER than freezing cold snowy winter here in Ohio. Ugh. fuck that. So I’ll live through the heat…if just so I can bitch all winter long and then some.

I know I haven’t been blogging at all lately. I’m not sure what is wrong with me. That is probably why I’ve been kinda cranky lately…cause I haven’t gotten my usual release through blogging.

Work has been really busy for me. I’m still not thrilled about some of the roles I get put into for some projects. I think I’m just not cut out to be a project manager. Give me something to develop or get technical with already! I didn’t study computer science for 6 years to use Microsoft Project and fucking Excel! Come on.

Sometimes it seems like my life is consumed with shit…The dogs, the cats, the guinea pigs. I dunno. Maybe I’m just having one of those days.

It’s freaking hot and humid today in Northwest Ohio. It stormed earlier today, and I didn’t feel like getting out of bed. So I didn’t…I got up around 1 or so.

I’m about half done mowing the lawn, and about half done with laundry. I don’t feel like doing much else.

I’ve decided to take a bit of a breather from going out. It has been hard to turn down friends. But I’m in a place where I need to just sit back and give some thought to my life and who I am. The path I’ve been on…and the path I’d like to be on…

Work has been busy lately. It seems like we’ve lost a lot of good talent in our department. I’ve taken on a lot of support for various applications, but it’s not so bad. I just don’t like that feeling of juggling and constantly having to shift gears and never knowing when I’m going to have time to catch up… I’ve been mentoring my first co-op over this summer. He’s been doing a pretty good job with the limited attention I’ve been able to give him. It reminds me of my previous job, and getting to work more closely with others. It’s a good feeling being able to help others develop their potential. Perhaps I should have been a teacher.

Well back to mowing and laundry I suppose.

I just posted a bunch of pics from our vacation. It was pretty wild. Had a great time. And it was great seeing Gian and Anthony!
