Playing "Square dancer number #2" in Oklahoma! was such a much easier acting job that outgoing, self-assured web developer presenting in front of a crowd of peers. I'm still alive, and I can't say I remember much of what I said or did other than sweat like fried chicken under tin foil at a church supper. I find it interesting that the majority of the population thinks I'm an outtie (extrovert). I remember some self-help infomercial (the guy with huge teeth) that if you keep acting like an extrovert, one day you'll wake up and suddenly be an extrovert. So far I keep waking up with the same insane fear that I have absolutely nothing to say to anyone, and all parties around me will ask the nagging question, "is something wrong, you are quiet today???"
So back to the presentations...I guess it went decently, because someone from Emory approached me with the information nugget of the need of a web coordinator for Emory. Terry has chosen to hire me for my current position, so I doubt I'm interested, but it was nice to hear.
Moment of zen: I woke up in my daily morning panic around 4am, and decided to take a walk. It was foggy, chilly, and devoid of humans. About 30 minutes into the walk I came upon two deer. We exchanged a few stares, and continued with our silence uninterrupted.
