Now that I'm home and the holidays are over, unemployment looms almost as large as my waistline! I'm still nice and limber from all my Yoga in Nepal, but all my time on the treadmill has yet to catch up with my holiday binge. I'm still not sure what to do for a job and how to proceed with my artistic endeavors, so at the moment I'm spending a lot of time watching t.v. and walking the dogs; 2 things we all know can lead to a total mind-numbing vortex of depression and despair without proper intervention. I feel that there is a certain inevitability to the melancholic tone which my posts must necessarily take, but that doesn't make me proud of it. The whole reason for this post at all is just to function as a preemptive apology and admission of guilt for being so whiney and lazy. I want to be a more proactive person, the kind of person who makes to do lists and plans things months in advance, the kind of person who feels comfortable committing to a cell phone plan, etc. Alas, I feel that this is just not something that's in the cards for me at this juncture. I'm going to try and take a little more responsibility, make a few to do lists, and make sure to get up a lot earlier and watch a lot less t.v. The dogs however, remain a priority :)
