The hunt and other assorted diversions of the mind

Well this IS getting interesting.

The Dearborn gig is lucrative but it means I will have to leave Atlanta, leave Kristen. Which is something I was prepared for at one point but I'm not sure it's worth it now.

The Atlanta leads are promising but we will see. I need to take my time and move for what I think will enhance my career, not just allow me to be out. That part is paramount but, I still need to think about the future.

I can take off for a few years now without a problem but I think eventually I might drive myself crazy. There is the thought of maybe starting my own business - but I have too many ideas right now to filter them down into anything real. The consulting gig is cool but I would still have to deal with the same issues with being professionally out. I've thought about funding a medical practice - anti-aging, plastic surgery, bariatrics. I have the jack and background for it but finding/hiring the right doctor(s) for it and such will be a pain. My personal doc and I have talked about it and she might be up for it. Her practice now is so terribly managed and could use a business mind.

Still shooting for a bit of travel this year. I'm taking a trip to Alaska June 3 - 17 to help my dad pack up, sell, and move. He does not travel/fly well so I'm being the dutiful son. Other than the first week I'll be available to do whatever while I'm there. Burning Man is still on the docket. It begins on my birthday so with that being free I'm set to make the festival.

Hoping to make another big ride soon. May shoot for this weekend unless I'm helping someone move. Which is a possibility. But if not I have to hit the road early as it's already started to pop 90 + degrees here.

Seriously considering some night life in MidTown this week so if there are any of my local friends who want to go hang out IM me. I need to fill the void or something like that.
