Beth put in her resignation today. I have that expected combo of shared exhiliration and intense jealousy. She reminded me I'd get my retirement back if I quit; told me that she'd get enough to live two months without a job and that I'd been here a year longer than she and so stood to get more.
My feet are itching to walk.
I woke up today knowing that not one thing that I've done in this job for the three years I have been here can I take a lick of pride in. That's sad. So much time spent. Mostly on a mind-sapping treadmill. All I can say is I ate off of this job, bought tp.
But I'll stay a little while more. I put in for a random vacation day next week. We'll see how that comes down. I'll be late to work when I just happen to be. No worries; all hums. The day will come and til then, I'll drum laidback surfer songs with my fingers.
The other shoe -- as I told Beth -- is sure to be so small, a baby shoe, not even bronzed. So breathe.
