Changes

Thanks to everyone for the support, the advice, and especially for the kind words.

I thought long and hard all weekend. I bit the insides of my mouth to shreds, as I tend to do when I'm stressed. I smoked about a million cigarettes. I am host to a slew of new pimples, thanks also to stress. My stomach is a mess, and my head hurts.

I hate - I mean really hate - making big decisions like this.

But, about an hour ago, I gave my boss my two weeks' notice.

I start the new job December 1st.

Wish me luck.
