Era of Commitment

Day 2 of the new blog. So far so good, right? Well, what was it that Tom Hanks said in Sleepless in Seattle... Something to the effect of "first I will remind myself to breathe and get up in the morning. And after a while I won't have to remind myself." Hopefully the same proves true for this blogging experience. Anyway, enough self doubt. I will stay true. I just imagine what it would be like if I had the last 3 years documented. How great would it be to go back and read some of my life, to understand how I had grown, to perhaps remind myself of lost dreams, or just to relive a piece of my youth for a moment... I think I will do a better job this time.

Right. So today I got a semi-scolding from my boss. We have this awesome relationship where I can be VERY honest with him and he listens objectively. Sometimes I think he looks at me as a kid, which I am given corporate world standards. Though I may have crossed the line a bit last Friday. Not so much by what I said, but the forum I chose to say it in. Anyway, tomorrow is my year end review so I am sure my 'lack of professionalism' will now be on the agenda. Good thing bonuses and raises were already determined!

So, it is 10:15 and I am exhausted. I actually have been tired since about noon today. I don't know if it is the cold, laziness, or just jet lag that is making me sleepy. All in all, I generally go to bed at 9 PM these days. Very unlike the night owl syndrome I have suffered for many years. Anyway, maybe the approach to a quarter of a century is starting to surface in 'old lady' habits. Who knows... it could also be a lack of a social life? I'd like to think it is jet lag, at least for now.
