I’m a bit too spread around at the moment to come up with nice, thick and chewy weblog entries for fur­ther mas­ti­ca­tion. Thoughts still bur­ble up but I don’t seem to have time to fat­ten them up. I’m going to list a few here in rough form for later exer­cise.

• While brain drain is a prob­lem, I’d like to find some Cleve­land job oppor­tu­ni­ties that don’t stick young enthu­si­as­tic folks like myself in bor­ing, unen­gag­ing jobs that require lit­tle thought, less action and no creativity.

† I need new boots, sneak­ers, and run­ning shoes. I also decided to start doing situps and pushups in the morn­ings before my shower so I don’t have to take a shower in the evening unless I go run­ning. That didn’t work so well this morn­ing as many guys will most likely understand.

‡ I think many of my self-​esteem and self-​confidence issues have to do with my family’s life­long appar­ent lack of con­fi­dence in my abil­ity to do things just fine thank you, with­out need­ing super­vi­sion or check­ing in.

§ Humans are meant to be holis­ti­cally active, not tubeworms.

¿ I want more agency in my life.

¤ Appar­ently I’m kind of bummed about some­thing. Prob­a­bly because I’ve not got­ten any in a while.

¡ My redesign is dri­ving me batty because it won’t dis­play prop­erly in IE, no mat­ter what I try and it is only super­fi­cially dif­fer­ent than my Tremon­ter site, which dis­plays just fine.
