Landing well
After a long summer, I'm working again at a new library with one of the fastest turnarounds I've ever had from interview to hired. They let the staffing agency know they wanted to hire me before I even was home from the interview. Also I discovered that the temp agency has a really good reputation which is nice. My hours are mainly afternoon and evening with one morning so it works well for my sleep schedule and the people are so nice. So far the library isn't terribly busy so I might end up being able to do some writing. At this point, I'll probably be there for about a month but I'm being paid a good rate. So all of this has taken a huge weight off of my mind. I didn't realize how stressed I was until it wasn't there. And since I'm working for the same agency as I did last year, all the payment and timesheets are the same.
I'm trying to get more active in terms of volunteering and really getting myself out into the world, which has been working out well. Last weekend, I volunteered at a wonderful concert by the river and discovered a cute little park that's not too far from where I live. Today I wandered around a little street festival in my own neighborhood and found some cute earrings along with a nice Egyptian street food place. Since the weather's deciding to be oddly warm, I'm going to enjoy it.
I've also fallen completely into the new Dark Crystal show on Netflix, which is so good. And there are books and comics which I'm exploring. I don't know if its a fandom I can write yet but I might. Yesterday I finished reading the latest Toby Daye book which was also great. I love how in that series, it all comes down to family and it never really gets simpler.
The news from DC is making me slightly hopeful and I've been enjoying a Leverage rewatch. I just love that show so much.
