hello world

work has been low key lately, which is definitely nice. i'm a little stressed about meeting some deadlines, but i think it will end up being ok.

*knock on wood*

had a job interview last week. i actually went to it, despite myself. i gave serious thought to calling and cancelling, because i was so nervous. the last time i had interviewed for a job was over four years ago...and, i didn't know squat about technology then.

i was amazed at how easily i could talk tech. i genuinely surprised myself, and the interview wasn't as terrible as i thought it was going to be. i actually almost enjoyed myself. definitely a good confidence builder, if nothing else.

what else? i've been thinking a lot lately, in conjunction with therapy (of course) and other life milestones. i like beginning to hear myself more fully, realize when i am falling into old patterns, and changing course. i used to be the kind of person that thought therapy was useless. now i know how helpful it can be to sit and talk with someone that sees you as you are-no strings attached. that can remind you to advocate for yourself.

i always forget to do that.
