We may have hit a glitch. It involves Tanya and her plans in the coming year. We should know by probably next week what is going to happen. Without being too cryptic (I guess it doesn’t matter as I have no readers and I am just writing to myself), but there’s something afoot with her job and she may have an opportunity that’s too good to pass up. I guess that’s the beauty of my job — there are never opportunities that are too good to pass up. That makes me fortunate in that I truly believe that I can take this time off and come back and pick up where I left off.

I also feel, that in a position that is essentially dead end (albeit high end dead end), I feel I must. It’s not that I lack ambition, it’s that my ambition has rarely gotten me anywhere. What it says to me is that career advancement isn’t for everyone, and that most of the time we don’t get to choose who it’s for.

So I guess this trip is where I express my ambition.

Wow. I took a post about Tanya and made it about me. That may also say something about why I’m taking this.

Back to Tanya. She has a lot of ambition and one of her channels of ambition is on the cusp of coming to fruition. We will see what happens. I think it would be good for her.
