Second Worst Day of my Life....but a little better!

WOW! I thought surely my little boring blog had been long forgotten by now! But to get such wonderful and helpful comments, really means a lot right now. It really brightened my shitty shitty day-- so I decided to respond to each:

@naturgesetz
Yes the two other people are good to work with. And the new boss, I knew from before, so he is open to feedback. He is very nice, just not qualified. He just happened to have been in the right place at the right time, and my boss wasn't.

@Mr HCI
Well, I actually wasn't there for the initial drama. I had been working late for many many nights, and by chance last night at 3AM when I was leaving the office, I decided I would e-mail my boss and mention that I was going to sleep in Thursday to catch up on sleep. So I woke up at 10:30 to my phone ringing off the hook with everyone screaming telling me what was going on...I thought for sure it was a nightmare and I was still dreaming

@MB
For some reason I can't stop giggling at the idea of a *pouncehug*-- I can definitely imagine a cat doing this, and it's adorable :-)

@pinstripe
Yea- I hope so-- they certainly had a large effect on mine.

@seth
Yea- I am really adverse to change. I just hate it. I've been in memphis since before I went to high school. I stayed through college, and have been doing my part time grad degree for two years. I have one more year to finish it up. After that I feel like I really have to leave memphis...otherwise I never will. If I don't leave, I am sure I will regret it later in life.

@JT
You are so right...but no unfortunately there was no hug, no consoling, nothing at the end of that drive; my roommate was at work. I have felt very alone today, and I can appreciate that it will probably get worse before it gets better. Thanks for the wave metaphor... I may print that and put it on the wall-- very elegant and appropriate.

Thanks everyone-- this really brightened my day! I am going to bed early-- crying and depression just makes me drained of all energy.

Much Love and a thousand hugs-

Steve
