(no subject)
So my first week of work at Popcap is fini, and it has been--as I imagined it would be--fabulous. I now walk past the bumper-rific traffic I would formerly have waited in for 60+ minutes a day; my co-workers are an excellent, select crew; the game I'm working on is *brilliant* and refreshing to test; and the atmosphere is pretty tranquil, especially relative to others I've worked in recently.
Score one for me.
The time freed up by the change in jobs will allow me to start working on music again with belied, which is very exciting. I've missed it on a deep level. The process of creation is a part of who I am; without it, I feel off-balance somehow. It'll be wonderful to get back to that.
Score two for me.
I've started hanging out recently with someone outside the circles I normally traverse. She's unusual for me in several ways, yet I feel vastly more in sinc with her than I have with anyone in quite a while (point taken, yes). Hopefully it will last for longer than a few weeks :) but even if it unexpectedly capsizes somehow, it has reminded me that there are people like that out there, and that reminder alone holds a great deal of worth for me at this point.
Score three for me. :)
Next up: a new apartment.
