Having a little bit of an anxiety attack here; I'm starting a new job on Monday, exactly two weeks after I had my interview. I have an appointment in a couple of hours to go get drug tested.
An hour commute but it's by train, so no big deal. It'll be nice to be downtown again, and I'm only a few blocks from my last job so I can occasionally grab coffee with my friends there. Really good money (the most I've ever made), an attractive workspace (yes, it's a cubicle but I rather like cubicles), and a boss who seems very nice.
I think I'm freaking out because it all happened so fast, and because I have so much to do to get ready. I have to unpack and wash all my work clothes, go get my drug screening done, buy some stockings and a train pass, and get a manicure (okay, that last one isn't a necessity, but I want to make a good impression when I show up Monday morning; I may even wear makeup).
