Employed

Well, in a strange series of events, I am now employed. Negotiations took awhile, so I only discovered that I had a job about twelve hours before I had to show up for work. It’s good news, but I wasn’t prepared for it. Well, actually I wasn’t prepared for life with a job. I had planned to leisurely go grocery shopping and do some important cleaning of my place. Suddenly my free time evaporated. I’ve got a turkey to cook on Sunday and I need to get ready!
It is a small company, and I’m amazed at how much I’ve missed that. I get to go to work with the feeling that I can make a difference. I had to take a cut from what I previously made, but I’m under the impression that I will be doing interesting work. I’m not in financial straits, so that may be a good trade.
