Is there still room for a jack-of-all-trades?
No, seriously.
Seems like so much of the world wants someone specific for things. You have to be deep. Broad is OK, but something you know/do must be deep. You seem to have to know something really really well to get somewhere.
I don't fit that. I have too many interests, and apparently can't keep up the focus to get really deep on something.
Going through another down phase. Seems to come in 6 month cycles, go figure. Curious if I have a mild depression, or I just need a vacation. If Pennsic doesn't fix this, i'll go see a doctor.
Trying to work out more, maybe it'll give me more energy, get me over the hump.
Also been feeling dumb. Lack of focus at work, plus apparent lack of memory on anything. Decided that a cure will involve active brain work at home. Can't do much at work right now - we're in the middle of a crazy amount of slogging office work. At some point, I want to learn permitting from Karen, but that appears to be quite a ways down the road.
So, active braining will be practicing musical instruments (of which I have too many, and yet not enough), doing crosswords and sudoku puzzles, painting and reading, and attempting to spend less time on the computer.
Also looking into maybe herbal stimulants for memory and focus.
I want the wedding to be over. The stress, the lists of things to do, etc, is getting much. Rather wishing to elope or go see the justice of the peace... but we made promises, and paid much money.
A good thing, just to add some balance. I've been calling and writing old friends, due to the wedding. I miss them. Wedding offers a chance to catch up, or so I hope.
