Not an April Fool's joke; I'm going to give 'not drinking' a shot again. No idea how it'll go, as I'll likely have to start by not going to bars/pubs, which eventually makes me lonely (as they're the only form of socializing I really have), and being lonely makes me depressed & want to drink, so I guess I'll see how it goes.
I know my lifting will get better, and maybe I'll be able to get back into running a bit. Would like to do another 5K sometime, but am in no rush.
Oh, and I talked to The German a couple days ago. He mentioned that his boss was happy with the translation I did for their corporate website, and I guess maybe that's raised my profile a bit? Said he might be interested in expanding their company to the US, and he asked me what I thought about being involved/in charge of that (somehow, I'm still unclear on what my role would be). Sounded a bit like a sales rep position, but he said I could do it part-time while keeping my current job. I've never really considered sales, because I'm not outgoing at all, but The German said that he wasn't either, until he got his current job. Maybe they'd be willing to train me? I'm definitely open to something, but it's got me a bit nervous. The German told me that it's a commission job, and that one of his colleagues sold a large, plant-wide system & made more money on that sale than I've made in the last three years! So there's a large upside to it, and if I can keep my current job, there's really no down-side, other than my needing to hustle for a couple years. I think I could relinquish some free time in order to make some money; it'd get me that much closer to early retirement.
Of course, it might have all been just talk. Who knows? I'll stay open to it though, stranger things have happened.
