Oh my.
Cousin nadin's rather boring in General Discussion, so I went to the Lounge.

What are you doing right now?
I am sitting on a pier at sunset watching a thunderstorm complex about 30/35 NE of me drift slowly east. The setting sun is illuminating the back of the anvil, and the whole thing has matured and is beginning to rain itself out. They got a heavy downpour up in Lapeer County from this one.

2. I'm drinking beer and DUing in my living room
Jen is off at a work party. There was a dress code and I don't have anything in my wardrobe for the occasion that fits. Besides, my foot is in an air splint because I just about broke it last week at work. Looks nasty but it's healing.
^^^shouldn't be drinking beer with all the pharmaceuticals he takes for "depression."

3. I am sitting in my hotel room with my husband, my dear Denninmi!
We're in NY, and tomorrow we fly to London. Our final destination is Rome.
You paint a lovely picture with your words...

5. I just got back a little while ago from getting a baby raccoon out of my wheel well.
Tenacious little bastard.

7. I'm playing on the computer
Reading DU -- doing a little posting.
Basically, the last two days have been a mish-mash of doing little things and then doing nothing. The rest of the family left for Fiji on Thursday so it's just me and the 4 cats at home.
My granddaughter decided on a trip to Fiji as her graduation present. Same thing her mother (my daughter) got for her graduation. She is going with one of her aunts -- my daughter went with her parents and one of HER aunts. I made some beachy clothes for my daughter for her trip and my granddaughter found them in a box and decided she wanted to wear them. I gave my daughter a diamond and sapphire ring for graduation and my daughter gave it to my granddaughter for HER graduation. It seems we started some kind of tradition.
I have a list of things I want to accomplish before they get home, which I may OR MAY NOT actually do.

9. Sitting here at 4:45 am briefly wasting time.
Trying to wake up so I can head to the gym, then face stopping at the store with a mountain of cans to return. My family drinks way too much pop. I must have $40 worth of returnables. I cleaned out the garage yesterday and found all if the bags I have ignored for months.

12. Nice, Denninmi.
You paint a lovely picture. Thanks for taking me there with you.
I am sitting on my front porch, listening to the rain. I love the sound and I love how it smells. The coffee is strong and hot. I'm waiting for my guests to make their way into the day.
I love life.

15. Having tea and contemplating my life. (Mostly work-related)
The tea is cold, my UI just ended (yesterday), my friends are useless, I live in an employment desert (everything for 2 sq. miles is low-quality retail) in the middle of the fastest recovering state on the East Coast, I hate it here and I have no place else to go. I feel like I'm about to end up in a McJob long-term and be stuck here even longer in poverty. I do some catering on the side to raise some money but it's too irregular to live on. (If I could live off complements I'd be golden--I got compared last month to Ferran Adrià . He's arguably the best chef in the world.)
So, off-chance...anybody back homeward (CT or NYC. Screw it, I'll go to any mid-sized or larger US city at this point) looking for a brilliant creative driven problem-solver who has held every public-facing position (either professionally or as a volunteer) in the NPO sector from community organizer and activist through development director and outreach coordinator to director-level co-head-of-organization in a consensus-run organization. Also, I've been through two start-ups including tax-exempt certification. I'm a published writer and a member of two professional societies (Association of Fundraising Professionals and Public Relations Society of America). Like just about everybody here on DU, I have campaign experience, both electoral campaigns and referendums.
(I figure advertising my availability on DU can't hurt. I know we have Career Help and Advice group but I read it and I feel like everybody there is churning in the same situation I am. We need a separate jobs board here so we can leverage our collective DUness to hire each other. I'd hire off here if I were in a hiring position.)

24. reading DU, listening to NPR
and the dogs bark, the macaw squawk (my sons are sitting up on a hill by the interstate waiting for some friends to go target shooting and the guard animals are disturbed by the truck parked up there)
and the cows and calves coming in to water bawling to each other. quite a ruckus!

31. On my throne.
^^^remembers reading in The Arms of Krupp that the medieval idle rich, parasites who lived off the labor of taxpayers, used to spend one third of their day eating, another third of their day sleeping, and the third third of their day defecating.

Would posting on the DUmp qualify?
