I tendered my resignation today right before lunch.
My boss was shocked, although I kinda told him yesterday. He lives in a different state than I do...the state of denial.
The President was not shocked. Tells you how much of a state of denial my immediate boss lives in.
I got an overture today for another position where I currently work. (They didn't want to approach me, although my desire to leave my current position has been no secret with these other folks). So ,as soon as it made it through the grape vine, my friend/coworker called me. I am not sure it is a job I want though, from what little I know. I will meet with them tomorrow or Thursday.
I really want to pursue science writing. Like the great essayists of yesterday: Gould, Sagan, Eiseley. If anyone knows an opening (even freelance), please let me know. I would really appreciate it. I also have one lead to get some clips in the stillbirth arena as a volunteer.
Anyway, finally executing the decision feels good. I checked out of the job along while back.
I just have to not stress about money. I do NOT want to tough the "baby fund" that I had saved up to stay home. So I need a bit of income by July just to keep paying the bills. But I can worry about that after my two week workshop!
Triple S is almost forgiven. Still a little tired from that episode. Waking up at 4 AM does not help. Hopefully my mind will be more at ease.
Maybe I will do what G said, Freelance. If I can bring in some dough (even very little) by end of July, I may stick with it (Or work part time at something that is not brain-taxing)
Anyway, feeling ok...

I think I feel the monkey getting off your back from here! I know it's scary to dive into the abyss of the jobless, but you will make it work.
Triple S is probably feeling all proud of his accomplishment haha.

I am glad you did that. I am sure a weight has been lifted. Good for you.
