Eternal Embarrassment of the Crowded Mind

Okay - this whole endeavour is a journey of ups and downs. Life, of course, is full of them, but whenever things begin to fall under the realm of “important” those ups and downs are always amplified, and it’s up to me to keep perspective.

As this is a journey, I should be writing my triumphs and my failures. The problem with broadcasting failures, is that they can make one seem unprofessional. And yet, most mistakes are not permanent and can usually be worked around. Without them - how do we learn?

So it has been this early morning. Somehow (I blame leap year) I got it firmly entrenched in my head that my interview with Patrick Wright was to take place tomorrow morning. How I figured this is beyond me, since Tuesday inexorably leads into Wednesday without so much as a “by your leave”.

To sum - I flubbed a Skype interview whilst the great Patrick Wright waited wondering where I was. And where was I?

Cleaning my apartment and testing out components on my computer for the interview I had to do “tomorrow”.

*facepalm*

Patrick, sir - I hope you can forgive me.

Will follow up on this when I hear from him.
