I was on the plan to Tampa between an antisocial guy and a man who kept drinking rum and diet Coke. It was a trip that I didn’t want to go on because I hate leaving the kids for longer than two days, but now I am kind of glad that I am here. Side rant: I’m a little disappointed that US Airways doesn’t have Wifi on their flights, but I heard in 2010 that they will. In a way, it doesn’t matter because the bulky work PC laptop that I have to drag around would have just been a pain (it’s currently in the bin above me). Knowing me, I would have probably smacked one of the guys next to me on the head and then had him give me dirty looks the entire 2.5 hours. When I’m not working, I wonder what I will be doing to pass the time. The hotel shuttle driver said that he would take me to the malls and restaurants if he doesn’t have to pick up/drop off people at the airport. I know that I am going to do some shopping while I am here. When I’m on the plane, I always reflect about my life. Life looks good. I remember this time last year, I was hating life. Now, I can’t complain. Yes, the love department could be better, but I’m working on that. A month ago, I joined eHarmony. I tried it once before with horrible luck. I do know why. The negative energy surrounding me oozed into my words. Reading what I wrote, I wouldn’t date me. I updated it, and now I am getting tons of guys wanting to communicate.  Another reason why I wasn’t meeting anyone. Another department that I need to work on is career.  I really want to freelance full-time, but with my company keeping me, I decided maybe things happened for a reason.  I am still looking for another position.  Yesterday, I made my resume public.  I already had four c0mpanies contact me for different positions, so I think by the end of this month, I will have a better job.  At the same time, I am writing my book, blogging, and networking.  I am getting more exposure, so I can’t complain. By 2010, I envision all my efforts this year would have paid off. Photo Details: Downtown Tampa, originally uploaded by doxadigital.
