Closing Time!

I am officially sans occupation. Truth time.

Right now, I have no idea what I'm going to be doing in the near future. As such, I'm a little scared. Luckily I have some money saved up. However, there is the strange feeling of excitement that I have. The last few weeks of work have felt nonstop. Even before that, over the last few months, work felt like more of a chore and every time I had to go in was met with a feeling of dread. I'm happy I had a job especially in the current economic climate, but I felt very weighed down. The somewhat popular sentiment at work was that very strange feeling of excitement that I mentioned.

Hopefully within the next few weeks I'll find something else and hopefully it's more career oriented instead of just being a bill-paying job to occupy time. Fingers crossed and I'm hoping for the best.

Halfway Through

We're about halfway through Lent and...I'm starting to lose it. Every time I think of something I want to eat, I remember that I can't because I gave it up for Lent. There are still 18 days left until Lent is over and I might have to cut a bitch. I especially miss cheese which is one of my favourite foods. I miss chocolate. I miss so many things.

MyTunes Monday: Bones

The End Has Come

Today I got an official date: April 6. That is the last day that the place where I work will be open. Ironically, I'll be on the other side of the state that day. The search for a new job has already begun, mainly a bill-paying job. I'm also in the process of putting together a writing portfolio, editing some pieces, submitting to various publications (newspapers, magazines and such) to maybe get some exposure of some sort. As I mentioned earlier, I'm going to Richmond in early April for an LGBT conference being held by Equality Virginia. Hopefully I can do some networking (which, knowing me, will take some liquid courage - I'm pretty shy).

It seems serendipitous that all of this change is happening on the eve of me turning 30. I feel a strange mix of hopefulness, excitement, and fear. Times like this can be seen as upheavals or opportunities, and I'm trying to focus on the latter. We'll see how it goes.
