monday in the rain

so the desire to start my own business is really taking over.

inspiration:
today i read about a few people outside of washington who have started the conveyor belt dinner - basically you go in and start to line up all of your dinners by taking different items from different little boxes, like in a salad bar, and put them all in a zip lock bag and weigh it. when you get home, you pop it in the freezer that way when you get home during the week individual dinners are ready, all you have to do is pop them in the wok, or whatever, but you don't have to think about what you are going to make b/c all the directions are right on the packet. how cool! i do something similar, only i cook about once every two weeks and just defrost whatever i've made in bulk. cooking for one is pretty hard to do and not as much fun.

working where i work and doing what i do is pretty cool. i enjoy it and the people i meet are what make it good. sometimes you hit the odd road block or two, but it's good for me to learn how to, how should i say, adapt. however, even despite all this, i can't help this feeling i keep having - this preponderant weight to do more, to break out of the box of the ordinary, to go beyond, only i'm not as big of a risk taker as i should be. i need to learn how to go out there and just do it. sure, i can move from place to place without a problem, i just can't seem to get do it in my professional life.

i think i need to apply for the apprentice. i wonder if i would do well...
