Tempus Fugit
Hey all!
For you non latin speaking folks, tempus fugit means time flies (time flees actually, but whatever).
I can't believe it's been two whole days since I last posted. I guess that's what I get for posting at night and then skipping. By the time I was ready to post this morning, blogger was down, so I said forget it.
Time flies, and the clock is counting down to when my contract at work is up next month. I've mentioned it a few times before, and the wonderful Dirk Mancuso was kind enough to ask about it today in an email. Speaking of Dirk...does anyone else LOVE saying "Dirk Mancuso"??? The Gal Pal and I talk about him and we're like "oh that funny Dirk" or "Did you read Dirk today?"
Wow, way off track there. I drank a Pepsi tonight at work, and the caffeine and sugar did a number on me. That was four hours ago!
Ok, so back to my contract. I've been fretting a lot over switching gears from my current line of work to a more public relations type of job. Just this week, a seemingly perfect opportunity came up as a spokesperson for a local entity. I knew it was going to open up...now that it has...I'm nervous about even applying. Part of me wants to get an offer, so I can use it as leverage to re-negotiate at the current job. The other part knows I need to cross over to the PR world and actually make normal people money and have a 9-5 m-f job.
So I get an email from the 'younger' people's group leader at church, announcing upcoming events, and it also included some scripture about direction for the new year. Not to get all church-y on your asses, but it was some cool stuff.
Proverbs 16:9 In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps.
Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths.
Of course I have been praying exactly for this, but it's great to have some scripture to turn to as well.
So we shall see where I'm led and what will happen next!

Watch your phraseology!
Good luck with whatever choice you take. And whether or not you decide to take the job, it probably wouldn't hurt to apply anyway. Leave your options open. You never know when the right opportunity is going to fall into your lap. Don't let it slip by because you chose not to go after it.
kevin: oops...i caught the lead/led mistake...what did you catch that was wrong phraseology?!?!?
It was a "Music Man" reference.
*sigh*
And here I thought you were gay ...
and seriously ... you need to update my link ...
Go for it, W!
Can't hurt, anyway...could be a good bargaining chip, if nothing else.
Good luck, whatever you do :o)
