Clumping

Im happy. I am! 30 is proving a good age for me. The line between my youth and my future has never been so dynamic. I have the security to do the things I want, intelligence and confidence gained by experience to relate to both older and younger counterparts. I feel fit and able, excited and serene. Im realizing what I have and what needs to be let go. Sometimes you have to step out of your own skin for a bit and actually see what others see now and then. The right others!

I was just in Denver…I really like it here, people like me here. Im different and that’s cool. I always leave with a renewed sense of self. Prob due to the great company. Its funny how the right people always seem to find one another somehow, sometime.

Africa is looming. The great unknown in many ways, not just in geography. It’s a time trial where past and future go head to head and what’s left in the end will be it. The dust has to settle sometime.

Work – hmm, do I really need to blog about this? Ya…Ottawa has me under thumb – Ive never been so certain. The higherups in other offices always see me as more than my Ottawa counterparts, and when I try to do more in Ottawa, I don’t have the authority to do things or get things in place that I know I can – and do from the back end. I really need to approach this the right way with my boss. He’s great, and lets me do what I want, but I don’t think he understands what Ive done/can do and can get done given my experience with the company and the relationships Ive built in the last almost 6 years. Im the shit…if you let me be  Reminds me..I have to ask James how his beer meeting with Steve went. I want staff, I want projects…its got to happen. DND ? worth checking out that lead if Ottawa is the place to be.

Here’s to being 30 and give’nr…oooh yah!!
