Creative juices are flowing again!! I have impressed even myself with this pseudo-radio show that TMG and I are playing around with. It just goes to show what two people can do when they put their heads together and start putting their frustrations into something creative. Don’t laugh, but it’s a “relationship” show. I KNOW, right? BUT! This is no ordinary relationship show in that we, the hosts, are the ignorant and we’re going to have experts as guests and hopefully we’ll learn a few things as we go: (A) how to create an internet radio show (ha!), and (B) possibly how to be smarter in our relationships (I hope, I hope, I hope!).
PLUS! If this really does amount to anything, I’d maybe like to use it to help my career somehow. I’d like to write more about it, but really, it’s kind of just a glimmer right now.
I took some GOOD pix! I happily threw myself into the promo photos that we took for the pseudo-show. I wasn’t really into it at first. I’d gotten myself all dolled up on Sunday afternoon. TMG’s photographer friend was going to do pix at 3 and then I was going to meet Cindy at 6 for very casual drinks/din. But the friend couldn’t make it at 3, so we ended up doing the photo shoot at 10, after I changed into casual clothes and then back to my leopard print dress again! I was exhausted and bloated with beer, but finally lightened up and played around with it, and actually enjoyed myself!
I am looking beyond the past. Finally mustered enough courage to have lunch with my old administrative assistant today, and I’m happy about that. So GREAT to see her. AND I got to see Boss Party Pant’s old admin as well (she surprised me with her presence)! It was funny, AA had my 10-year award with her. And as weird as it was, we had a laugh about it because she’d had a similar experience with her old company (only it was her 20th year!). AA told me that she told ExBoss that she was going to have lunch with me, and she said told me that ExBoss looked like she was going to cry (uuuhhhh! Again with the crying??). So I finally broke and said that I’m willing to communicate with her–especially if she can be beneficial in getting me another job [CN–possibly that letter of recommendation that you suggested???]. So, we’ll see. I’m not holding my breath, and I’m not even sure that I’m ready to talk to her, but if something good can come of this, why not? Positive thinking!!
I am surrounding myself with my good friends. I’m so happy to have Best Bud back in my life. She’d posted a job online and I found it, emailed it to her, and asked her about it. She said that yes, she’d posted the job, but no way would she let me work for her (plus it doesn’t pay enough), BUT!! That maybe she can get me in and help push for a new position that could be created at her company. A bigger, better position! They are doing a bunch of restructuring (isn’t everyone), and I pitched an idea to her that she thought sounded close to something they’d been kicking around in the first place. I’m going to push for it. It can’t hurt, right?
I am moving forward! I can actually feel the tiniest bit of momentum starting to build. If I can keep my spirits up a little more and more each day (and yes, I do slide back every single day, but noticeably shorter lengths of time), the ball will start rolling faster. I am almost ready!
