Good Shift

Paige Tashner — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 22:13:41 +0000

Been a crazy busy person. Good thing I don’t have a job! I KID! Still looking. But in the mean time good things are a brewing.

Decluttering, purging, spring cleaning, what have you. Feels good and I found out that you can actually sell used wine corks in the process. Who knew?

Rebuilt my bus’ engine. whew! That was monumental and I still get a thrill every time I turn the key and it starts.

Started a hoop troupe, too. The Spinnerettes. We’ve already performed and have three upcoming gigs.

I’d say despite the panic of unemployment, things have made a good shift.

A little stress reliever on the horizon.

Been rebuilding a VW engine, looking for work, missing my grandmother, staying out of the dating world, considering purging 90% of my possessions and moving my bedroom into my basement to make room for a roommate. That’s a lot to have on the brain all the live long day. shit.

But out of nowhere a fellow VW Bus Camper texted me with an offer I couldn’t refuse. I’m headed to Buses by the Bridge in Lake Havasu, Arizona this weekend to be with Burners and VW peeps and hoopers! holy crap!!!. I’m flying down with three VWBCers and meeting up with another one in California then we’re piling into a rental and joining our friends. can’t wait!

I should be working on the engine but my brain needs a break or at least a lovely distraction. Got hung up on the distributor – the drive popped out before I got the valves adjusted and I couldn’t wrap my head around how to re-install it correctly. I mean, what would you do?! I’m learning this as I go and it’s another thing that kicks my self-confidence in the nuts from time to time.

But enough of that…I’m going to AZ to be with friends and VWs and hoops in the sunshine!

Wow!

Not sure what happened but I feel pretty fucking good. Maybe Burning Man caught up to me. Still don’t know what I’m going to do about being unemployed AGAIN but somehow I’m not worried. Sort of let the whole dating thing go away, too. Feeling good about that as well. Hmmmmm. The house is a disaster – nothing new – but I’m seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. What the hell happened? Oh, maybe it’s because I drank coffee and ate bacon today.

Holy shit! It’s been awhile, huh? Well in a nutshell:

My last day at the TV station was June 18th
I’m on my last week of severance
I am on unemployment
I have started my hooping career, with the blessing of the unemployment people

Like I said, “Holy Shit!”

good god, will it ever slow down????

Day 5/60+ hours. tomorrow is all about the website and getting the hoop cart built. Saturday is house cleaning and meeting my girlfriend (the marketing genius) for marketing and promoting my hoop biz. *sigh* I still say I need a clone so I can run around with my friends, have sex with men who will never commit to me and drink myself silly without getting fat.
