Last Minute Notice

August 1, 2008

I have been incredibly busy these last two weeks, spending approzimately 100 hours both wrapping up things at my old job and pre-training with my new job.

I've been busy, I've been stressed, and this is best illustrated by my dropping a slotted spoon onto the kitchen floor two nights ago, spouting obscenities, and bursting into tears. It was 8pm, I had been go-go-going without a break since 6am, and hadn't eaten anything for the past 8 hours.

I have been simply a delight to be around, let me tell you.

Ttoday is my last day at my old job and they keep giving me more work to do. Thanks, but no thanks. Monday will be my first day full time at the new job with the State of Alaska (yay for moving from the non-profit sector to the public sector! it's sure to be a completely different flavor of BS!), and I am nervous yet very excited.

To fully swing myself into the realm of CRAZY, I am participating in another gallery opening with a local photography group. Tonight.

I have three photos showing at Laughing Lotus Yoga for the month of August, and there is a reception tonight from 6 until 8.

I will be there spilling soda on the lovely carpet and probably, eventually, sleeping and drooling in a corner. Come say hi!

Best of luck, or at least try to have fun.

i couldn't help but think that sounds so very much like what i'm going through right now. minus the job change, but definitely including the swearing, crying, dropping things, making messes, and falling asleep in strange places.

hope the show was fun! looks like it was from the pics...

So how's the job going?

...you HAVE been busy! 19 days - no post?
I know you haven't forgotten your peeps.
