Today was exciting! And exhausting! And I learned a lesson!

Today I had a meeting in Northwest Portland with a company that needs their entire website rewritten.  I know I shouldn't announce jobs before they are mine, but I'm hoping that Murphy won't kick my ass yet because the potential job isn't the point of this post.

It took about an hour and a half to get to the meeting using Mass Tansit.  This is because for some reason, Tri Met thought it would be a good idea for me to go allllll the way into downtown just so that I could catch a bus that goes allllllll the way back through downtown and out to the Northwest part of town.  The meeting itself was only about fifteen minutes–maybe twenty.  Then I had the commute home which took about an hour.  So–I was out in the world for roughly three hours. And you know what?

It left me with a headache and feeling completely exhausted.  I'm not sure if the headache was spending so much time in the sun and heat (look! June finally showed up!) or because I had to, like, go be a professional person for a while.  But either way? I have no brain power anymore and I'm kind of wishing I had done today's projects yesterday when I was feeling focused.

I? Am apparently no longer meant for the real world.  That's right.  God bless the internet!  And e-mail! And webspace for uploading and sharing and downloading! Woo!

The internet: keeping hermits busy since…um… a while ago.
