...i feel like i'm in college again. tonight, i found myself at a coffee shop with my headphones, hot chocolate and papers strewn about a tabletop. i'm working on a big RFP for a client we already work for. it's a great project with both creative and community outreach components. so i'm sitting here, excited about the project and the chance to bid for it and i'm stuck. maybe it has to do with the lack of sleep i got this week in my hotel in medford. maybe it has to do with all the sugar i've had today. maybe it has to do with the world of warcraft team that seems to be playing all around me. i don't know what it is but i'm just stuck and my butt is sore from sitting.
in other news, i absolutely love my new book. last october i started eat, pray, love and still have not finished it. at christmas i started a book about which detailed the theory of the government using fear tactics on the american people after 9/11. it was interesting but i couldn't get into it. then i started yet another book that i couldn't get into. finally, i found one i love. it's called acts of faith by philip caputo. this book follows two mercenaries as they travel into the sudan to provide aide to the starving/struggling sudanese people. they come to africa with good intentions, wantin to save the world one person at a time and end up getting entangled in the moral battle that is africa. who is good and who is evil. basically it plays off the phrase TIA or this is africa. behind every good deed is an evil outcome. it's really good so far and fairly believable. i'm really considering going to africa in the fall so i am exposing myself to both far-feched and not so far-feched concepts. anywhoo, it's a good read.
okay- back to work i go
peace love

I've had the same feelings when I'm doing work for companies (although I still am in school - 3 more weeks then not so much), but I like it cause it makes me feel "grown up".
Can I borrow that book when you are done this summer? It sounds really good. My mom got me Eat, Love, Pray and I haven't started it and now she told me she got it on tape for my dad and I to listen to while we drive cross country - which I'm super excited about (I'm not sure how much my dad will like it too). I think you should totally go to Africa! If I decide to go into the Peace Corp that is where I'm going.... we should talk more about this.
