This week was an actual work week in a lot of ways. I got a story out for my friend’s company. I was really sweating though. The reporter who was going to write got hung up at a conference and was delayed in writing by about 24 hours. I really didn’t want to fail on the first go.
Then today I had a phone interview for a Head of Marketing position at a company that is basically a 10 minute drive. That makes it super attractive even though it’s not exactly the most exciting company in the world (anything following “actual spacecraft” is bound to be a slight let down).
I had a somewhat annoying conversation with a friend today who asked me if I “ have any press connections ”. The answer is yes, but then she wanted uncompensated introductions so she could pitch her new app . Yeah, that’s not how it works in public relations - friends or not.
I’m thinking about heading down to Santa Cruz on Sunday for Morning Motors if anyone wants to join.

Might head down to Santa Cruz on Sunday morning, but at this point I’d say only about a 20 % chance. I work until 1am Saturday night/Sunday morning, and I have to be in Sacramento by about 2:30 pm on Sunday afternoon .
The only real reason I would do it is because I feel bad not having taken the C5 on a nice long drive in what feels like forever. I’m just not sure I’ll want to do a 6-hour round tripper on 4 hours of sleep.

Pfshhhhh. It's a 4.5 hr trip for me. Given my 1am bedtime lately, I probably won't be sleeping much.
