4/3/08
the week of "drumming up business." i've been roaming all over milwaukee peddling the gospel of disaster preparedness. i've had some tentative takers, i believe, and have also seen places i've never been.
there are all sorts of architectural wonders in this city. how exciting to stumble into old buildings and find some feast for the eyes, marble floors and intricately carved wood. footholds worn into stairs from decades of use...
the week has been interesting to say the least. i can feel the term winding down, and am starting to wonder what will happen next. i am thinking of applying for a job at a shelter, i think. i'd like to do more service-oriented things.
i'm going to be the reporter for our tsp group. i think my portfolio is going to be awesome when i finish this whole mess. so much has been going on... i think i'm just ready for a new part of my life. that part where i am mostly content to be where i am and comfortable being who i am.
matt's coming home for a moment. i am excited, and nervous.
