Day 144 of 365 days.
Long, long ago, before the TV show My Name is Earl ever came out I learned to believe in Karma. Or as I’ve always called it, the Karma Tornado (from an old Tick comic book). The base theory is basically that if I just kinda zen my way through life good things might happen. Sometimes I forget that, and stress about things. But as you might have noticed I haven’t been stressing about this whole unemployment thing at all. I’ve taken a dip in the hottub, played some trivial pursuit and went to a party. Today, I got out of bed, worked out, and then took a shower. I thought to myself I don’t have to get dressed for work. Kick ass! So I put on my favortie Jimi Hendrix T-shirt and a torn up pair of jeans, fro’d out my hair, made a sandwich and sat down for a nice day of flickring and talking to people online.
I was interrupted by three different recruiters calling to talk to me about job opportunities. Not that I have any of them, mind you. But at least things are looking up.
Thank you, Jimi.
Karma is totally true! Glad you got some recruiter calls!
I have a love-hate relationship with Karma lately…glad she’s been good to you! I like your t-shirt!
You have that supermodel-esque thing going on in this picture. Did you get your new lighting for christmas perhaps?
(also, apparently you are Possessing of the Slack. congratulations on your almost-job-offers)
@Christy and Ktiffany: Thank you
@Sunday: Thanx. Nope, I used the same lights that Steph gave me for our anniversary back in November. You still haven’t seen them, have you?
i <3 that shirt!! and karma…she’s very, very real…i’ve tempted her many times (too many times) in the past and lately i feel that i should not do that…i hope that somehow, someway i’ve made up for the times that i’ve tempted her in the past so that she doesn’t come back to haunt me later in life 😉
nice shot!
It is much easier to get through life if we believe things will balance out. And experience has shown me that things always do have a way of working themselves out if I can just let go of the outcome I think should happen.
It sounds trite, but it really is about letting the current take me instead of trying to swim upstream. There are things to do to avoid hitting rocks…signs to pay attention to along the way. Actions we can take. For me, letting go of the outcome is what truly releases the stress.
I love this shot…very relaxed and model-riffic! 😉
Relax time is great!!!! Stay unemployed as long as you can…..we still need to take a day to go hiking or something….
