This one’s going to be a bit boring, in all honesty.
I am no longer a choreographer, or game designer. I’m barely a tanguero. The first two are things I just don’t /do/ anymore. I can perhaps claim a sliver of game design consultancy.
This is not to say that I have no interest, but if I’m honest, I have not been making them part of my life.
Things have recently gotten simultaneously better and worse in one aspect. More explanation after timeline:
Monday… hell if I know.
Tuesday I treated my partner to dinner, followed by a game of Carrom in the lobby. The plan was to work the evening, but we both crashed out when we got home. I kept waking up to check the status of the moon, to no avail.
Wednesday was a lost day at work. I had all these tables ready to go for information, but the person I asked didn’t get back to me until after I left. Partner and I went to Green Drinks. Interesting trying out a new spot, met a few interesting people, but it was seriously loud and pricy. Stepped out and walked along Beltway to skate park instead. Reviewed paper at home.
Yesterday during work I finished all the stuff I should have been able to do yesterday. It was also the board meeting for my condo. I picked up a 6-pack of coffee for the grueling ordeal to come. What is ordinarily a 1-hour meeting lasted 2.5 because I had the suggestion (and everyone else agreed, or at least hung around) that we clean up the ticketing system. Everything on our docket is now assigned to someone, resolved, or otherwise tidied up. I am super pleased that we did this, but it added a dozen or so things to my to-do list. And then I was up and down most of this morning with a bubbly belly and lots of things to write; I’m sure caffeine contributed, but I’ve had times when I was kept awake by dozens of ideas and caffeine wasn’t a factor.
Today has also been super productive. I’ve charged my phone, prepared a fruit, written the water company, given to charities, written a science update, written two truck owners to ask for help moving, written my D&D folks, congratulated new parents, picked up dry cleaning, and had lunch with my sweetie, updated my budget, created a character, wrote my great-uncle… and I still have just over an hour to go before D&D.
That being said, this burst of energy just happens to come with a plethora of responsibilities (mentioned earlier). I would like to change my lifestyle to more efficiently manage all of these things I hold for others, as well as the ideas I want for myself (which includes choreography and game design). I’m not quite sure how, yet.
Wedding tomorrow night, can probably get a few more hits in over the weekend. Let’s see how it goes.
Has been a scale of increasing productivity as a week progresses, curiously.
Also an achy arm; although not today, despite higher productivity. Probably caused by mousing around.
Confirmed reaction, certain drinks have been relegated to medicinal use only.
