Trying New Things

For the last couple months I've been looking for work and doing some consulting.  I was searching, searching, searching instead of being present. I am trying to live in the moment. Last weekend at a friend's Halloween Party I decided to dress up in something less me (no vintage outfits, or cute dresses), so I decided to look through my closet and came up with a revised roller derby outfit.  I've become a bit more conservative in my outfits as I've gotten older, so the derby outfit is not something I'd normally wear.  It was fun and I got a bit of exercise roller skating around.

This week at the 140conf a couple companies Kodak and RS Hotel were video taping conference attendees.  I decided to forget about my fear of being on camera and just do it.  Kodak was asking "What makes you Smile" and RS Hotel was asking "What does it mean to be a character @ #140conf"

While you can probably see how nervous I was it was a lot of fun and I am glad I did it. As Eleanor Roosevelt said "You must do the things you think you cannot do."
