Two Days Until the Full Moon. Are You Ready?
The full moon for September is on the 7th. That is in TWO days. TWO. In the past on nights with full moons, crazy things have happened to me. (Mostly, involving stupid boys at the bar, but craziness nonetheless.) I'm hoping for some good crazy this time. Some very good crazy this time. I could use your good thoughts on this. (You guys totally came through for Jeff during his surgery. Let's make it 2-0.)
Not all my friends have had their lives presented on a silver platter. In fact, several of them have struggled for jobs, for love, for school, for sanity, for hope, for money. I think these things are probably more universal than just in my collective group of friends, but you get my point. After all this struggling, my friends are now finding true love, finding financial stability, finding hope, finding educational degrees and are starting to achieve their dreams. It is very cool to experience with them or to watch them as they experience it on their own.
Well, over the weekend, I spent an enjoyable evening at a barbecue at the home of a Brother who I truly admire. She had gathered together an incredible group of people. Many of them have gotten married in the last four months. Some of them have gotten amazing promotions. Now, they are looking to buy bigger houses in nicer neighborhoods so that they can expand their families or have space for their new motorcycles.
Many of us at this party, are far behind the curve. We are still in apartments. We are still dating and playing the field. We still go to the bar on a Tuesday night. We have not gotten to the point to buy real estate (or motorcycles), get married or start families. In fact, there are moments when I personally, am not ready for any of that. There are days that I feel that I am totally faking this whole "I am an adult" thing. I am not pulling off well-adjusted adult with goals, a future and stock options very well. Not that I'm not working on it.
Well, today, Dale called me. She and I have been commiserating on the whole getting a job thing. She wasn't having any more luck than I was. She studied marine biology and apparently those jobs are hard to come by. I understood her struggle completely. I related. Well, she called me tonight to tell me she got a job! I am so excited for her! In fact, she's moving to the Maryland area right now.
So, I am hoping that with the full moon being in TWO DAYS, some of that karmic energy will find me. I have an interview tomorrow morning (See? I need more good vibes from you wonderful people because I trust you that much.) and hopefully, they'll just love me and offer me the job the next day. Which would be the day of the full moon. This is a job that I really want. A job that I would do really well. A job that totally encompasses everything I can do well. Now if I could just go out there and get it.
So, hopefully, the full moon (and all of you fantastically wonderful people (which by the way, have you lost weight? are those new shoes? I love that shirt on you!)) will do wonderfully good things for me. I would really appreciate it. (Did that sound pathetic enough? Should I beg more?) So, for those of you with some pull with the powers that be, Thanks. In advance.
