Thing 2- Out of the Starting Gates

I'm clearly the horse that stumbles out of the starting gate, ever ungraceful, unable to latch my feet to the ground beneath me.

I returned to a pile of papers, phone calls, emails and technology after being off of work for 5 days. I've finally sifted through the emails, made the call backs, moved piles of paper back and forth, but I can't seem to embrace all of the 2.0 responsibilities yet this week. (I maintain the library myspace page and flickr account )

I'm hopeful that with soo many people on staff going through 23 Things I might be able to share some of this responsibility and improve the efficiency and impact of the 2.0 prodcuts we are using. In addition, I'm hoping that with additional knowledge of other 2.0 tools I might be able to discover shortcuts and exciting technologies I can implement into my daily activities to make life at work (and home) just a little bit easier.

Perhaps I may even find balance and the strength to pass the finish line when all is said and done. (Keep in mind I say this knowing that Thing #4 has already been posted, and I'm at the back of the pack)

Hmmmh. Here I am with my very own blog.

Is this the starting point for all future responsibility? Will it put me on course for the 12 step qualification program to have children? You know what I mean, take care of a plant, take care of a pet, take care of your grandmother's sister's daughter's son's only cousin etc......
Well I can admit that I miserably failed at owning a neopet,
so maybe this will be my road towards technology redemption. I'll report back after I've completed #24, which is yet to be determined.
