Time... to find a new dream

what is 'time'? is it just the way we measure our days, is it a certain period of life or is it a magazine? whatever 'time' is, i have A LOT of it these days!....well, not so much of the magazine, but all other forms.

close to one month ago, i was laid off from my job of 3.8 years. some people might think this is "too bad" or "so sad", but i think of it as a blessing in disguise. would i like to have a job right now? sure, i guess that would be good, but here's the deal: i didn't love my job (a hush falls on the audience w/ one woman gasping from shock) and am ready to move on.

i am looking at this time as an opportunity to find something that i love doing and am pretty excited about it, but here's the deal; i'm not sure what i want to do. i was doing: finance, operations, tech support, reception, inventory/supply ordering and an occasional 'stress therapy' session from time to time (co-workers would stop by the front desk w/somethings they needed to get off their chests or needed advice on. the highlight was seeing stressed people walk up to me & 5 minutes later see smiling people walk away). i also enjoy kids, adults, animals, computers, working w/my hands, being outdoors, having a somewhat flexible schedule and free weekends.

i will take any and all job suggestions, please help me find my dream!

Thanks, T

BROOMBALL!!


The 2009 Minneapolis Rec Broomball League starts today & I AM VERY EXCITED!!

You had me at Skee-Ball

Yes, the year is still going great! I had to work on friday, which was too bad, but i did travel 2 hours w/ my sister Jen to our sister Erika's house & helped watch my nephew for the night. It was a very fun time, i hadn't been to their house in about a year and a half (i'm a horrible brother/uncle).

I got back to the Minneapolis area and had a nice day that involved church & my first ever experience @ Dave & Buster's. if you don't know what D & B's is, it is an arcade/sports bar. i was a little apprehensive about going at first because who in their late 20's hangs out at an arcade? As Wormy & Pidge (B & T) tried to convince me to go they only needed to say one thing, Skee-Ball. and just like THAT, i was hooked.

My Hips Don't Lie.

the new year started off on a good foot, i played broomball for about 2 hours w/ half of this year's team & a few other folks on a beautiful 31 degree day. I was a fun time! I was about to be on my way home for a nice relaxing afternoon when Brando asked if i'd want to play w/ last year's team. I said yes & headed to st.louis park & played for about 2 more hours, this was also very fun. However, i am not is shape and shouldn't have played for 4 hours. How do i know this? well, because my hips do not lie and they are definitely telling me that i shouldn't have played for 4 hours!

Happy New Year!
