I'm sitting here with headphones on even though no one is around. In fact I'm not even listening to anything. I should be doing myriad things, like packing for instance, because I GOT A JOB!!!
Thursday afternoon I received a phone call for a job offer as a Typist at "Rels Abstracts"... starting the next morning. Of course I took it, but I had to drive out for my first day and come right back to regroup myself who was very much freaking out at the time.
In a matter of hours I should be back on the turnpike headed to Pittsburgh with no plan on when I'll return to this side of the state. I'll be sitting in a cubicle, typing the same monotonous information into the company's system for eight hours a day, five days a week. Boring? Most likely, but there will be some nice looking paychecks.
I'll be living in a new city, full of convoluted roadways and bridges, but I can't imagine the opportunities I'll have there that will enable me to do something I really want to do. I may even discover what that "something" is I want to do with my life.
For now I have to concentrate on finding a place I can move in to; I'll be crashing at a friend's apartment (I've been living out of a suitcase for eight months, I think I can swing it for awhile). I'm still in freak-out mode, since it all happened so fast. But hey, I'm all about spontaneity, especially if making money is involved.
