In-Between Update in Open Diary 2001-2018 (Pre-Prosebox)

Guess I should update or something.

I’m paralyzed with fear. Tomorrow is the day I have to give my resignation at current job. I should be used to this. I had to do it a little over three years ago. But that was to my ass-face boss and I couldn’t wait to get out of there (yes, this is the company I’m going back to! BTW, Ass-Face is gone.). This time it’s to my HOTT, sweet, loving boss who I love dearly because he pretty much lets me run my own show. Good thing he’s always, ALWAYS in a good mood.

Problem is, I’m not really giving a two-week notice. Well, I am, but it runs right into vacation time. So in actuality, I’m giving him a three-day notice (urgh). See, I think we get out early on Friday, and I was planning on taking all of the following week off (the week between Christmas and New Year’s). And now that week is going to be taken up with looking for a place to live…because the new gig wants me to start on January 3rd!

The only person I’ve told that I’m quitting is Stephan, my friend who was laid off right before Thanksgiving. He wants my job. Well, right now he just wants any job, though he does just fine and could live very comfortably for a year in New York City without having to work at all. Still, I’m going to offer him up as my immediate replacement because he knows and understands the business and could do some extra stuff that I couldn’t even do (one would think so anyway, considering he confessed that he made 50K more than I did!!). Anyway, I hope that by offering the solution of having Stephan take over, all will be fine and good.

Guess we’ll see tomorrow.

So much to do, and that also paralyzes me. Yesterday I took the Tan Man (my cat) to the vet. I had to get him some kitty valium so that he could make the flight to my parents’ place for Christmas. I’m planning on leaving him at their place while I get my act together.

OH speaking of the T-Mac…look at what the lovely and talented [ArtImp] painted:

Isn’t that just the coolest? She had some of her amazing pet paintings showcased in her diary, and mentioned that she was going to be doing more. I loved them so much. A few e-mails later, and voila!! He’s going to be on exhibit at her friend’s gallery/store for a while, and then I will have to find a perfect place to display this in my new place! Pictures will be posted as soon as I can get my act together (which could take a while).

So yeah, back to the valium. Okay it’s not really valium because the vet said that could hurt his little liver (even though I gave him valium at another vet’s discretion when I moved here), but I’m supposed to try this stuff out on him to see how he reacts—starting with ¼ dose and working up to a full tablet. I hate to drug my baby, but it’s always kinda funny because he stubles around drunk and happy.

Party at my place!

I am laying way low this weekend. Just trying to relax before the shit hits the fan. Plus, it’s been snowing, and I hate to get out in that crap…well, driving-wise anyway. I think I’m going to go out and take a nice, long walk after I post this. I love how the snow looks before it gets all slushy and dirty and black. Not sure how long I will last because it’s coooooollld! But I could use some fresh air.

Better get dressed.
