It's the Last Day of, Well, Something

Actually, it's my last day of work on my current contract. Which is pretty cool. I'm ready for something new and breathtaking to happen. Well, maybe not breathtaking, but at least new. Maybe now I'll have some breathing room so I can start learning new things again. Yes. I'm tired of peering over the top of my monitor and seeing the same corner of my cubicle, with the network jack and power outlets sitting there, all stupid.

So you know, but seriously: I guess I've been going through a what-I-would-have-done better assessment of the past five months, but not really in the sense of feeling regretful or whatever, but just in the context of planning for future projects. You know what I mean? It's just healthy not to want to make the same mistakes twice.

Also, it is the second day of constant rain in Milwaukee. Also, it's cold. But it's not really all that affected by it, beyond the note I'm making here. I've been thinking of seeing a movie this evening, but for the first time in a while I think there's literally not one damn thing in the theaters I'm interested in seeing. Wow.

Oh, and one final thing: if you have an opportunity, read this, as well as anything else you can by George Saunders. His writing has made me so happy lately. I think it could make you happy, too.

Oh, and one final, final thing: you probably wouldn't have to work too hard at all to talk me into going to this, even though it is happening tomorrow.
