Just one more morning at the New Job and then I'm off the hook. It's a good thing, too. I'm not sure if I'm apathetic because I'm leaving or leaving because I'm apathetic, but lately the shits I've been giving at work have gotten smaller and smaller to the point that in the past week or so, I just haven't given a shit. Deep down, though, I hate being a bad worker and I'm glad I'm ducking out now while the bridge is only a little singed, not burned. But now that I've gotten used to not being scrawny, I think I'm going to start working out elsewhere.
I had a good long talk with my mom on the phone this morning, something that hasn't happened in quite a while and felt great because of that. Shadow, our cat, is still slowly fading away. In a way I'm glad I'm not there to watch it. In better news, though, mom's got her sights set on a part-time job in sales, a field she's always loved working and been excellent in. I know it'll work out well. She mentioned that I still have about $8,000 of my inheritance invested for whatever I want to use it on. (The other $2000 went to buying and repairing my car.) The rational thing to do is to save it up for when I'm through with school, whenever the hell that'll be, and by rational things-- my mom suggested furniture. But furniture is just shit you walk around or sit on. You don't get anything from furniture. I could, and am seriously considering, spending some of that money to travel more. I still need to repay Matt back for the spring break trip, and we're planning to visit his mom up north, and Charlie and Devan both live in NYC now and I'd love to visit them both, and we could go overseas again... Now's as good a time to travel as any. I wonder how long the break between semesters is. |
