I’ll be honest, the paperwork’s all fallen through, with the contractor (me) citing, I quote, shifting perspectives! It’s because the client (also me) has found new purpose. This is the problem with being the contractor, being the client, and being indecisive, all at once.
From now on, instead of agonizing over infinite possibilities, increasing the length of that one draft I am probably never going to complete as a thoughtful, academic blog post because it’s turned into an inventory of crimes against humanity instead, and maladaptively daydreaming about alternate timelines where my blog is already complete – the ‘knowledge integration’ part of KIPP is exactly what I’m going to do. Bear with me; I know it’s a redundant move. An obvious move! It’s just that I had this specific idea, starting out, about what KIPP was supposed to be, what I could make with it. After
- unproductively spiraling down multiple rabbit holes of information simultaneously,
- not resurfacing at all until months later with a broken brain solely made of Jell-O, and
- looking through everyone else’s work over the year this summer (upside to being part-time),
though, that idea has changed, in a significant way.
In short, I’ll give KIPP’ing a go from a different angle, and very strongly wanted to ensure a clear ‘post-y’ divide from back then, and what I hope to achieve soon. Rebranding‘s the word, I think.
I’ll be back within a week, on the other side of this break. Salut.
