Sweet Freedom

So I’ve quit my job, more or less.  I’m still working on a “training” basis - which means that I go in once or twice a week to help out with the transition while I leave.  I’ll hopefully be doing some consulting work in the future for the department - doing large projects when they come up.  It’s really what I wanted to do in the first place and what I really enjoy.

 In the meantime I’ve bought myself a new laptop (for work purposes - there’s only legal software on here!!!), I’ve been drinking beerdrinking beer and kind of relaxing - plus I went to Mardi Gras but that ended up being a clusterfuck of gigantic proportions.  Plus I’m working on getting healthy again - I get fatter every time I work and then when I’m out of work I skinny up quite a bit.  Gettin’ rid of the ole gut will be great - stupid cubicle life packs on the pounds really easily.  Working on some database/programming training and basically just trying to not be a waste of space while I’m not working for real.  I should be able to pay bills and live for quite a few months without needing to get a job again, but I’m really only planning on doing this for two months or so and then trying to work for real.  Let’s see how well it goes.  Of course, if I get contract work from the old job I can keep doing this for a long time - which is really what I’m hoping for.  I love working from home whenever I want.  It really is the best way of doing it.
