I wish I could give you a good excuse as to why I haven't updated the good old blogaroo. Truth is, there is none. I've been busy these past two weeks doing very little aside from the occasional honey-dos.
My contract at Nike ended the last Friday of May and I've been waiting/hoping for a new contract or full time work there to come up while continuing to grow my network, all that boring stuff. Last Friday I got a call from an old boss of mine during my time working at Oregon State with an opportunity to pick up another contract at Nike. Went into an interview on Monday, nailed the interview...BOMBED the Excel test that was given to me after the interview. All is well though, I got a call early Friday with the good news that I got the job. So not long until I'm back on campus.
What has been most interesting about this time off is that I learned bored is a very dangerous state. Being alone with your own mind for too long can become terrifying. I had so much time with my thoughts, and what felt like nothingness (You can only play so many video games and read so many books) that I began to write a story about nothing. Not like Seinfeld was about "nothing", rather "nothing" as in what nothingness is and does. One of two things happens; You either go a little bit crazy for a little while, or you go completely sane, or so it may seem. It is entirely possible that what feels like sanity is in actuality long term insanity playing a trick on you. I fear that I may have suffered the latter. I expect to know more when i finish the story; I will keep you posted.
