My posting has been sporadic lately for several reasons, same would go with correspondence so I apologize, I’ll try to catch up this weekend since some incoming news will affect my mood for a couple days.
Meanwhile, matters have been really solid for three months in my last visits to the doctor. He really enjoyed the collection of Neil Young covers I put together for him; I may even post the song list, see if there are some fans who could’ve done better. I wasn’t surprised he knew who the Pixies were, more that he liked anything they did, especially “Where is my Mind?”
Somara’s teeth situation is improving too. She had an emergency visit with the dentist yesterday and I feel it helped her outlook. I’m hoping the amount of ibuprofen usage will decline too. Somara has another morning of work on Monday, fingers crossed it is successful. It isn’t fair of me to eat “real” food while she gets soup.
Austin is going through its fifth cold snap. Yeah, I know, “big baby!” when I see all those temperatures around the North and East barely cracking the freezing point. Keep in mind, Austin doesn’t have the infrastructure to deal with prolonged stretches of these conditions. The forecast in the near future looks hopeful. Climate really influences my anxiety.
The key factor for the weekend will be determined by lunchtime. Either I will blather on about it or I’ll probably take several days off to take my mind off it. I do have our 10th anniversary to brighten matters by Sunday.
Jan. 16, 2009 Update: Got the rejection. Didn’t get the new gig at work which is a mixed bag. So it kicks the weekend into a crappy funk for a while since it’s pretty much par for the course with my career with Apple. However, there’s always an upside, namely keeping my life there to 40 hours.
