and on the cable car I climbed
My replacement is here, and I have officially moved up in the company ranks. I've been pinning all my hopes on new-me, fantasizing about the last time I'll have to check faxes, answer phones, or stock the kitchen. Unfortunately, I am realizing now that I'm having a hard time letting it go and trusting her to do stuff. Also, I'm a terrible teacher. When I'm explaining how to do something I include lots of extraneous information until I feel like I've thoroughly confused her and saturated her with irrelevant information.
Also, my editor has left for vacation for three weeks, and I am trying to do The Longest Story Of My Life, which is proving very difficult and stressful. I'm also dealing with temporary editors in his absence, who all do things a little differently than I'm used to, and there's just A LOT OF CHANGE GOING ON LATELY. Which is just a little stressful. Just a little.
It'll be okay. I am adaptable! I am flexible! I am totally and completely fluidly moving into my new position! I AM the position.
Anyway.
I'm going to Philadelphia this weekend to see Chelsea, and oh dear. I am so ready.
