People often ask me what my world looks like. I've recently started hanging out at what I call a park in the late afternoon/early evening.

But if I was going to mess up an interview, it should really be under this setting. Plus I got to explore a new neighborhood, enjoy a Mickey D's ice cream cone (so sinful; so delicious) and now and sipping an ice cold half-frozen water and eating papaya while I watch kids run around and listen to Ohio Players on Spotify. As far as days go, I've had so much worse.

You have a wonderful attitude. :)

What a lovely park!

You know, I'm actually finding the job hunt relieving. It's really, really not easy of course, but after the last two years it's a relief to be free of everything else, and it gives me structure to my day and things to work toward that I can actually make some progress on, I guess? Plus there's a lot of options and opportunities to be excited about. New beginnings, you know.

Did I mention I'm also doing ESL tutoring at the local library? It's kind of nice being able to get out into the neighborhood and meet and help people, and not have Fordham hanging over my shoulders. ;-)

The park looks pleasant.

I think so. It's very close and I've got in the habit of taking my laptop there (yeah, I know) to just spend time with other people when the day gets cool.
