The job offer went through. Now is the process of getting all the documentation I need before actually getting onto the job site. It's more complicated and annoying than it sounds. And my first day is tomorrow, and I'm kind of panicking about it a bit, though I guess it'll be fine.
I suspect that soon I will be endlessly grumpy due to lack of sleep. I'm going to need to get up at about 4 AM just to get to work, see. Wonderful. :| And there's so much worry of "Shit, what if it turns out that I'm totally incompetent at this and they boot my ass out the door after only a few days". Ugh.
But hopefully (hopefully!) I will be able to get some writing done soon. Yeah, I know, "How can you write when you'll be working?" Well, the bus ride to and from is an hour. I'll probably be sleeping on the way there, but coming home? I expect I'll be awake enough to pound out a few paragraphs every couple days, at least. I expect that all the training I did with learning how to write in a moving vehicle will come in handy.
It's a good thing, too, because an idea popped into my head last night and I'm itching to write it. I'll let it percolate a little more, but not too much. I want to get on that idea. It'll be fun to write... I think. But it's one of those things that's kind've dumb and idficcy so I'll probably see if I can find a prompt that will suit it, and post it anonymously.
On a completely unrelated note, I hope my Finnish friends (and certain friends currently residing in Finland) will have a wonderful independence day :D [Though as I'm writing this, it's about halfway over. Oh, well!]
writing,
