so this morning, right before the alarm went off, i was dreaming that it was 4:52PM next wednesday, my last day at EJ Footwear. and i was ok with it...actually i was anxiously watching the clock, counting down the last 8 minutes. i'm going to take that as a sign that i made the right decision ( Read more... )
