I don't think I realized how bad I felt

until I began to feel better. Well, no, that's not completely accurate; I had some pretty gruesome lows this past year, especially this past month or so, and they were impossible to ignore. A big part was money worries, and a big part of those worries was due to the job I took last July.

And so the reason I'm feeling more light-hearted today is that I accepted a new job and then emailed my resignation to my now-former employers. It's a fine feeling.

It's not like they were bad people - well, maybe one or two of them were, but that's not my point; the main thing was that after the almost seven months I was with them, they were perhaps even less organized than when I started.

I always like to say that although I've worked too many different places over the past ten years, I feel that I've learned something at each job; this may be the first time I can't say that. Not only didn't I learn much of anything there, I think I may have even FORGOTTEN some stuff.

Anyway, onward and upward. I have about ten days till the new gig starts, so I'm going to try to unwind a little, read in the sun, make it to the gym every day, haunt a few cafes...that sort of thing. Rest up before the new venture.

Nothing like solving a difficult problem to remind you that you have some say in how things go.
