Links on My Desk
So what has life been like since being back in the United States? At this point, everything is pretty back to normal. The shine of a borrowed life has disappeared. I'm back to work. I'm back to trying to answer the same questions that I always am. Have I learned anything new this time?
My therapist asked me if I always try to make everything I do task oriented? She meant, do I ever just let myself be creative just for the sake of being creative? I laughed and said, "no, I don't think so." Usually, when I have an idea, it's because I get some other, larger, goal in my head that I want to achieve. Like, I started running a few years ago. But I do have a larger goal of some day running a marathon. I think I'm learning that maybe I'm one of those people that just do something casually, and instead I have to take it to its furthest exterme. Eh, I think I'm being a little harsh on myself right now.
Spring is blooming here in New York and it's beautiful. Unforunately, it has absolutely triggered my seasonal allergies and I've felt completely stuffed and woozy for the past few days. Despite the beautiful weather, I've stayed inside.
I spent a some time today taking a look at the old web. I get in this mood when I feel like I want to be heard where I want to talk about the old web. I want to log on and feel like I have friends who I can talk to that are strangers who I can play a game with. Or something.
