Been an interesting month here, which probably explains why I'm sitting here at home at this time of day/night, and waiting for this alteration of my spinach-tofu Lasagne to bake, as apposed to being at work, and I assume that it is partly to blame for why I been playing hermit, which believe it or not even loud mouth idiots gots to do every once in a while. *l*
Yeah, as those of you that know me well, (and actually the ones that haven't heard a peep out of me in a few weeks) know that my company has been falling on hard times and I was expecting the separation packet anytime-- IT FINALLY CAME! So now I'm laid off. Also those who know me well, know that its not a cause for grief... so please don't feel sorry for me. The anti-social behaviour (well not completely, I have been talking to people via LJ a a little bit... mainly a Science fiction Young Adult Fiction project called Clockworld, I been creating some stuff for), has been mainly cause I now have all these blank days, so I've instead been filling them up by INSANELY working on projects (mainly some illustration work and finishing up the latest chapter of Rein bo Wrein), reading, finally getting to play some persona 4, and brushing up on guitar again.
So mainly Im in this large influx of creativity, where I just want to dwell in my own head. And not having a job, means I don't have to suddenly quit, and leave and go somewhere. I just have everything turned off, and just work. Its nice to have that ability, and be able to nurse it for as long as it can go. I'll be back to my loud self in no time I'm sure.
That being said, the Lay off didn't come with issues of thier own. Firstly, I am getting paid for the next month and some change, and then my company has already set up the unemployment forms. Of course this comes with no medical benefits, which means I won't be able to afford my medications. But I'm not to worried about that right now. I'll deal with that when its time to cross that bridge I got drugs for a few months still.
The big issue is when I want to move. The original plan was holding out til april so I wouldn't have to travel across the united states to go to her wedding, instead keep my job to as close to the date as I could then go to the wedding and then move. but now I'm pondering if it would be more cost effective to move now, and go ahead and get a job (ive already collecting boxes and organizing myself for a big move) and then travel from the west coast to Ohio. Or if it would be better to bide my time on unemployment and then move after the wedding. I'm still trying to decide... I'm sure everyone will know when I come to a decision... as I'll want to hang out with all my Knox-peeps before I move on out of here.
Much respect... I'll be in touch.
