Resigned

I quit my job yesterday. Sent in my letter of resignation. Said, I’m outta here, buh-bye. My last day is December 1st. I have been dreaming of this day for a long time and now it’s here I’m a bit scared. Holy crap I’ve had this job for over 6 years and I can do it with my eyes closed. Why would I give that up for a new job with a new company when I won’t quite know what I’m doing?! Because I want a challenge. Because I’m bored. Oh hell, because I want the signing bonus.

We’re off to DC now for a long weekend. I’m going to drink martinis until my nerves settle. I’m glad to be away from the phone and e-mail so I don’t have to hear this anymore, “Oh my GOD, you quit? Why?”

Because now I get to work from home, wear sweat pants and be with the dogs 24/7. Of course what do I feel the drawbacks are? I’ll be working from home, wearing sweats all day and never be away from the dogs…. Did I think this through?

More on the new job and all the sordid details of getting hired next week when I come back....
