Came back from vacation to a job interview!

Don't have much time to blog right now (actually someone mentioned that my posts should be shorter, so I'm working on that!), but I wanted to quickly fill you in.
I went on a fantastic trip to Connecticut to visit a friend of mine this past weekend. It was effortless and amazing to realize how capable now I am at being able to get up and go to some "distant land". That cracks me up thinking of Conn. as some foreign space to venture to. It's really not far at all. The point however is that to me, it is leaps and bounds further than my old self would have felt comfortable going.
Not now!
I had the time of my life and learned things about my new self every step of the way. I learned that it is possible to travel and maintain a strict "mentally healthy" diet. I learned that my ability to learn and remember where I was going is soooo much stronger than before. I learned to feel confidence with my new found intelligence in trusting my own decisions. I learned that I'm getting comfortable being on camera.
What? You say. Yes. Quickly, I stopped at a gas station where they happened to be filming for a news cast about gas and was asked to be on camera. I excitedly said, "Sure!" The news caster interviewed me briefly and though I felt the normal butterflies, I communicated clearly and was even a little funny. She thanked me and told me I'd be on. For your info, it was in Springfield, Mass. and the station was News 22. Just another exciting moment in my new life.
Last thing to tell you is that I now have to get ready... for a JOB INTERVIEW!!! I am soooooo excited about it. I can hardly wait. This of course has NEVER been the reaction I'd normally have felt in the past. I'd be so scared and nervous, it would be out of control. Now, I am filled with happy anticipation.
And on that note, I must be gone. Keep your fingers for me. This is of course a whole new chapter, starting the end of my disability into finally having a real income!
By the way... thanks for reading!
