But I digress..A recap of life in the meantime..
Some day, I’ll really have time to be sick, and enjoy the process of eventually getting better. This was the realization I made at about 4 AM today. It was still dark out, I was stretched out in bed. Having foregone the nicety of Kleenex, I mean - facial tissue, I lie wheezing with my roll of trusty toilet paper at my side.
It’s here that I’d like to interject that it was Quilted Northern, or that other rippled one that’s nice and soft, but alas, it was the cheap 2 ply Aldi brand, which, I must admit, gets the job done nicely.
I finished Cisco class last night, and got a class completion certificate despite the fact that I missed the two classes prior to circumstances beyond my control (sickness and unplanned Washington DC travel, respectively.)
It was a nice night, and I listened to the Cleveland orchestra (Dork!) on WCPN/NPR (Super Dork!) while driving home from class around 10. I was shocked that I could still see that sliver of light out to the west where the airplanes were coming from.
It was a quiet ride. One of those introspective moments in a collection of introspection that, I’m realizing, precedes any certification-related undertaking.
I take test 1 of 2 for the CCNA on Tuesday. It’s called Intro, will probably be pretty undifficult, but I really want to hone in on the fundamentals to make the gargantua to follow if not easier to bare, than at least palpable. (Because we all know there’s just not enough papyrus-friendly gargantuas out there..)
But I digress.
Work is driving me crazy. As I achieve more of my goals, and become more, it seems as if people are becoming more transparent. Motivations, character, all of that fun gray-area stuff just doesn’t seem to be so lately.
Weird side effect, eh?
Anyhew, have a safe holiday weekend!
