I am FREEEEEEEEE!
I'm unemployed. Wonderfully, deliciously, unequivocably, snuggly-wuggly UNEMPLOYED. Yeehaw!!!! Wheeeeee!
Last time I found myself in this predicament I was really depressed about it. My self esteem was crushed. I didn't know if we would survive (clearly we did). My whole worth and identity was all about my job.
Things have changed, baby! I have a new lease on life (plus about a year of mental medication - that always helps).
The job market seems to be better nowdays too so I'm getting some job leads.... although to be honest I love the freedom of not having to drag myself to an office every morning. I don't have to answer to anyone else. I learned the hard way that me and corporate America do not equal harmony.
I may do some consulting. I'm digging back into my creative endeavors with a full head of steam. My house is clean. All the laundry is done.
LIFE IS GOOD. For now. I'm enough of a cynic to know that things can and will always change. But for now my eternal quest for happiness is satiated.
