Well, after getting up at a ridiculous hour this morning (although realizing last night that my flight to MSP was at 7am instead of 6am made quite a bit of difference in the whole beauty sleep area of my life), I’ve had a pretty sweet day. The flight was relatively painless (well, as painless as a flight can be when you are 6’4″ and sitting in coach. As it turns out, I was sitting next to another guy that was also about 6’4″, which meant that we had competing needs for the extra knee space to the side of the seats in front of us. Suffice to say that I didn’t get as much sleep as I would have liked [not to mention the guy by the window who snored the whole flight, and I mean snored. There were people turning to look at him from four rows in front of us], but it was a direct flight so at least I didn’t have to make any connections).
Now, after getting a ride from the airport from tall and tallerer, I’m hanging out at his house while he is overseeing his grad students at work. Which leaves me sitting in front of his freakishly large tv with cable and internet and kegerator. Not a bad way to spend a day, if you ask me.
Of course, this just makes me question my current lifestyle, said lifestyle consisting of working 40-50 hours a week, not enjoying my job, already being at the top position that I could get to at the current company I work for (even though I’ve only worked there for 6 months), not having time to see any of my friends due to work on dog duties (and dog “doodies”), etc, etc, etc. All in all, it isn’t what I expected to be doing when I was 10 years out of high school, and 6 out of college. Honestly, how I thought that I would be spending my time is how I have been spending the last few hours, sitting in a room with a computer, stereo, tv, beer, good music and creativity. I’d love to be able to work from home, blog about whatever random thoughts enter my mind (ok, so that may be a little too much, because my mind is random), make some phone calls and do some business that way, etc. Who’s with me?
Now, how to make that happen…
