I didn't get a chance to say before, but big congrats to DH, beth. He's deserved so much better, and having just been through this, it's nice to see someone else escape the soul suck for better things.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Right now his old co is pushing a lot of buttons- everything from 'won't you be bored' to ' look at all these people you will be leaving in the lurch' . Boredom is perhaps an real issue, but evertime he joined a company he has gone way beyond the original parameters of the job he was hired for that I suspect that he really won't be bored. OTH, part of the point of this job was to find something that would allow him to do the other things he really likes to do - a job that would leave him with more energy.
so the new job is going well, brenda?

It's going great - this was an excellent move for me. I got really lucky.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
That's good to hear, Brenda.

I'm happy with my new job. there are a few things that make me nervous- like being in a system with no money, but I felt almost instantly at home. I am seeing myself get busier and busier. I have started talking about going back to my old library as a sub - which DH is less than thrilled about - But since he likes to spend whole weekend days in the garage working on guitars - I think we can deal with me working an occassional weekend day.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If only I had known that the fruit of the weekend was the banana before I went to the grocery store.
Instead I bought the excitingly cheap strawberries.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
sumi. strawberries are NEVER the wrong choice. In fact, when they're exceedingly cheap, what would be wrong is if you *didn't* buy them.
