Hi everybody!
I start my new job next Monday. I also have to go in for a few hours this Wednesday for training, but that's just practice. It doesn't count- except as flex hours (yessss! half a day off!).
There are several reasons why my going back to work is a good thing:
1. My power bill will surely go down, as I will be using less air conditioning, lighting, tv, radio, etc. Yay for using the work microwave instead of mine at lunchtime.
2. I will become slightly less socially awkward than I've been in recent weeks. It's amazing how not having a job can affect one's social life, and not just because I'm broke as a joke and can't go anywhere that would require purchasing something to stick around (i.e. coffee shops, bars, concert venues).
3. I hope that my apartment will be less messy because I won't have as much time in it to throw shit around (Megan can attest to this- she saw my place this weekend and it was baaad).
4. I will have income again. This is perhaps the most obvious of the benefits of going back to work.
5. I'll have less free time to ponder random shit, like memory foam.
6. I can't think of a 6th reason. But I'm sure there is one. And maybe even a 7th.
Today is cleaning day. I have decided that the mess must be taken care of before training day.
Zoooooooooooooooooom!
