Day(s) recap: opportunity with Luci Creative

I feel like I'm going to jinx myself by saying anything, but after finding some daily doodles in my brown notebook yesterday, I feel like I should go back to daily journal summaries. I'm missing so much by not blogging, but they take so much time or I just don't think to do it.

So here's a short summary of today and yesterday: I found an opportunity at Luci for Project Manager. Despite having accepted a job in Tacoma, WA, I didn't want to pass it up. So I reached out to AJ, the CEO, and she set me up with their Operations Manager, whom I met at the mixer and really liked. She informally spoke with me this morning and really liked me and my experience and set up an in-person interview for me next Tuesday. Nothing is promised or in the bag, but I'm proud of myself for doing my first ever network-based job inquiry and getting somewhere with it. I'm also proud of having gotten past the second step, even if I don't get past the third. I mean, I really really want to get this job, but I'll be proud of myself no matter what.

Tomorrow I go to the children's museum in Sheboygan with Charlotte and I'm looking forward to it.

Running update - 2 miles achieved!

The Monkey Bar Gym has been closed during the week because of Summerfest, which means all my krav and boxing classes have been cancelled. My muay thai instructor and I talked about doing some outdoor exercises in its place; but it was nearly 100 degrees with full sun and incredibly high humidity these past 3 days, so that was out. In fact, I went for a walk on my lunch break on Friday afternoon and felt sick for the rest of the day from the heat. I was hoping then to get some hiking, running, or rocking climbing in on Saturday or Sunday, and to make it to a krav or hot yoga class on Sunday; but none of these things worked out. The heat prevented me from being able to do any outdoor activities, and no one was able to go rock climbing with me. Saturday I went up to Baraboo with Jennifer Koss to do some hiking and swimming at Pewit's Nest, but because it was so hot, we didn't end up doing a lot of the former. But I got home so late and was so exhausted from the heat (also, my shou...

Pole update: layback achieved!

I finally got my cross-ankle layback tonight! I wore my new Wonder Woman shorts so I'd have more grip in my thighs and followed the advice from a blog I recently read, which said to go into it from a reverse Superwoman. It worked! I was able to get it every time except for once, when I think it wasn't close enough to my crotch. And then because I was able to get the layback, I was able to work on bow and arrow and got it on the first try. After that, it was pretty easy to keep doing it (especially since my leg grip was so good). Also, my flag is looking better. I can raise both legs now pretty horizontally and hold them there for a while on both sides.  BOOYAKASHA!

January 18 - Being a therapist: 10 rides at Magic Kingdom

Sitting at The Whiskey on Sand Lake, waiting for Bryan. I took myself to Epcot, where it rained, and spent the entire day on the phone. Sea World Nick's finally hit wall with his Jeff problems and has accepted that he needs to see a counselor. That's good. Hopefully, Melody and I can become friends in the process.  We'll go go Magic Kingdom next to see the Country Bears before they're gone, but it feels good to not be at Disney for a second, even if it meant having to drive all the way back to Sand Lake and then drive back again.  No photos today.  LATER ADDITION: Despite it being really damp, rainy, cold, and puddly; and despite Bryan and I both being really tired (possibly because of drinking whiskey and wine, but also possibly because I was emotionally drained), Bryan and I somehow went on 10 rides at Magic Kingdom in 3 hours and closed out the park.  We didn't realize this until we were talking in the car later because we weren't rushing or even aiming to do...
