Off the grid

So it seems I haven't had much to say of late.

Actually, nothing could be further from the truth; I've just been radio silent, waiting for life to work itself out. But I think it's time to come clean.

I QUIT.

I'm leaving my current job. One week from today will be my last day with my current company, and I'm moving on to something completely different. (More on that once I land in the new gig.)

It makes me a little nervous, but I'm also very excited. It's weird, though, because I've never done this. In my professional life, I've never just made the ol' switcheroo; I've never looked for work when I didn't need to look for work.

The new job has lots of incredible perks. Fridays off in the summer. More holidays than I've ever had in a calendar year. On-site mechanic. In some ways, I'll be spoiled. In others (like the drive), it'll be rough. But that's okay; I'll adapt.

I think it's going to be an amazing new chapter, and I'm completely ready to begin. But I'll have to wait another week.
