My @#$@#$#@$ Bad Parrot had a crazy moment yesterday and flew over and bit me hard on the ear. (Bad Parrot is Icarus, the stinker sitting on my shoulder in my icon picture.) It didn't bleed, but bruised badly enough that it was slightly uncomfortable to sleep on that side last night

Someday, I hope! You definitely give me hope for myself. :)

"Oh boy, I get to go to work today!"

That is exactly how I used to feel about working at the Survival Center! It is the best way to feel about work.

It really is awesome! The trouble is, having a job that makes me feel that way really makes other jobs, even good ones, feel like a drag. :/

I'm glad I'm not the only one dealing with this. My UMass job is a great job, a lucky break, a blessing. And I certainly still need it for survival and stuff. But it's definitely feeling more like a drag than not. I have to really push myself to feel motivated at all. Whereas, makeup? Total motivation, breathtaking momentum, and a sense of rightness and "flow" that I've never felt in any other job, ever.

Patience is hard. But I'm confident that we'll both get there. There's something incredibly powerful about discovering one's true calling.

The Crystal Parrot still sells frozen veggie cubes. They're at a new location not far from the old one. I haven't yet seen it, but will when I board Kappa next week. I hear it's huge. :)
