Well, I will be re-joining the work that I never should have left. I don't know why I tried to convince myself I could handle an office job.

And as far as self-sabotage goes, my dad hit the nail on the head.

I had been complaining about my job for so long that I was really really making it worse by not just quitting, walking out, but I thought, no I can't do that. So instead I took some days off with very little notice, but someone noticed, and oh, that someone was my boss, and he was not pleased. So I got someone to answer to phones for me for four hours on Friday and then when I showed up on Monday my boss let me know he didn't appreciate that and he thought I was dedicated to my job and then there was this

pause

and I didn't know what to say, so I said, well you must know I don't like it here. And he said that's what I was afraid of, and maybe it's best if you just go and I said okay.

So, even though I technically got fired, it's pretty awesome because I got nearly $500 in severence pay and I'm going to work at this fancy restaurant with a fancy name called "Mirepoix" in the morning.
And I'm actually so excited to get back into the restaurant business, I really love it more than most people.
I also got a job that starts in February at a fancy new Tapas restaurant, so here I go again. All the best jobs I've ever had have been in restaurants now, if only Sleazy could be behind the bar when I get there.

New Years.
Wow, New Years.

I haven't done that many shots in a long time. Woke up sooooo drunk and had to be at the bar in order make kick-off
kick-off of the GREATEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!

God I love Texans. So many in one place all screaming and jumping up and down. It was so much fun. And then we came home and I was out like a light and have been sick ever since.

Snow storms and job hunting and now back to work tomorrow.
Thank god I never have to see those awful people in that awful office again.

Yeah!!! I never thought losing a job could be so great!
