Intro to Cake Baking

So I have been asked by more than 1 person lately just what the f I am waiting for. Well, as we know, I have hired this CMC (Career Management Consultant)* to aid me in this process called finding employment that will get me going. That will propel me from bed every morning. I got a first look at the new resume yesterday, gotta say it looks pretty good. According to this resume, I can leap small buildings in a single bound and perform open heart surgery with a ball-point pen...in a crowded opera house.

I have two more meetings next week with CMC and I will be turned loose for a bit, to use my newfound knowledge to see where it leads. Start getting some nice resumes out there, and also see what the old CMC can dig up as well. There's got to be something. So, again, why is everything taking so long? Well, let me try to put this into laymen's terms. Or provide an analogy, if you will.

Say I'm baking a cake. I want to do it right. F'n best cake ever. I put together a list of ingredients. Chocolate, coconut, eggs, sugar, whatever, all that sh*t. I go to the store and get these ingredients, making sure everything is just right. I return to the kitchen. Start preparing, again making sure everything is mixed properly, texture is right, etc; Now I don't bake cakes, but let's say bake time is 1 hour. I put the cake in the oven. Now, do get so antsy and fired up, sh*t my pants and take the cake out after 2o minutes and eat it? Of course not. I make sure the cake is fully cooked before enjoying it.

Hence, right now, for me, the cake is in the oven.

There you have it. Contemplate that morsel of philosophic deepness over the weekend.

And oh yeah, for those who think it's one big picnic here On Sabbatical, I did turn down a ticket to go see Phish at Fenway Park Sunday night. Now I love concerts. Good concerts that is. And I've never seen Phish, have always wanted to, there's a fun crew going, and Fenway would be the perfect buffer concert to see them for the first time, (rather than going to one of those week-long festivals, where bathing is optional. Or should I say frowned upon.) Oh yeah, penthouse hotel suite as well. Turned it all down. Trying to be responsible. For once. Or twice.

I have a meeting with CMC Monday morning, and believe it or not, I am eager to get this process rolling and find a nice career. Whatever the f that may be.

So its not all fun, games and grabass over here. It's more like fun, games, grabass and a couple good decisions, thrown into the mix, every now and again...


*If you're confused by this term, please, for the love of God, read back a few posts. I will lose my mind if I have to explain this every time.
