November 2021 Wins

Off topic: it looks like Blogger finally updated its platform to resize images appropriately. It only took, what? 5 years? 

I saw an old post of mine talking about wins, and it occurred to me that I don’t talk about that enough. I’d like to make a point of doing a post once a month about it, but… *shrug*

So November wins:

  • Made a bunch of new friends (a bunch at Luci) at the SEGD conference
  • Went to the Eastern State Penitentiary’s Halloween Nights
  • Went to the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia
  • Was recognized a lot at IAAPA. I don’t have to work so hard to network anymore
  • Met my mentor Kile Ozier in person
  • Ran for the TEA board (and lost, but that’s okay)
Early December wins:
  • Spoke with Carol at the Smithsonian and got a TON of incredibly helpful feedback. 
  • Won the bid for the Hamilton East Public Library largely (almost entirely) due to me
  • Impressed my MIA clients and am moving forward on that project
  • Met Marina Heck, a world famous and LOCAL pole dancer, who I’m planning on taking privates with
  • Started trapeze classes again with Annabelle. I totally sucked, but you gotta start back somewhere
  • Took a boxing workshop with my old instructor Donna. It’s been over a year since I’ve done combatives

別に何もない

Listening to: Utada Hikaru - "One Last Kiss" Drinking: Sen cha from Fava Tea Mood: Mellow-ish. Waking up Working on: Adding Crew 11 to the ISS Wall interactive in Atlantis Reading: Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern (audiobook). About to pick up Matilda by Roald Dahl.  Remember when Livejournal used to have the tags at the end where you could add what you were listening to and what your mood was? Mine had little blue kitty icons that went with your mood and were very cute. I miss them. I particularly remember the 'productive' one, where the cat hat glasses on and was tapping on a keyboard. There was also one where it was snoozing and had little 'zzz's above its head.  On a different note, I had never heard this song by Utada Hikaru before (well, apparently I had because I had already "liked" it on Pandora, but I don't remember it), but I really like it. I'm actually repeating it again. It gives old school Utada vibes but apparently came out ...

Daily Journal

したこと: - Found out someone at work was trying to groom me to cheat on his wife with him, something he's tried before with other women at work, unsuccessfully.  - Had to sign paperwork with my boss in the room stating that I understand employees are allowed to have relationships with each other (I never questioned that) after someone claimed I made a statement I never did after they themselves made many compromising statements. Awkward situations abound now. But everyone has to work professionally and deal, and I better than anyone can do that.  - My boss handled the situation neutrally and incredibly respectfully. I felt incredibly supported by her in that moment and like she handled it very well. I appreciated her skills as a leader in that situation and am grateful. She closed the situation graciously.  - She also graciously checked in on my workload. It was one of the moments that made me remember when Christine actually felt like a great boss when I really liked workin...

Weird dreams

I've been having a lot of trouble sleeping this week. Between a host of unrelaxing dreams, difficulties falling asleep, and difficulties staying asleep, I feel utterly exhausted during the daytime.  Yesterday, I had so many odd dreams. In one of them, Skylar was a fluffy black cat like Sammie and I asked Brian at what age do children turn from cats into children, and he and Michelle made fun of me for thinking children were cats, even though she clearly was. He passed her over to me to hold at one point, but Skylar squirmed out of my grip right away, and I was confused how I was supposed to hold cat - children.  I had a more concerning dream about Roto. In the dream, Trevor from KSC work, the gal that freelanced with us once at Roto who used to work there, and I had been hired on as freelancers to write had pitch two ideas for some kind of show.  In the dream, the timeline aligned with this past weekend when I have been asked to guest lecture at UCF for their show writing...
