The Countdown Begins

Well let’s see here I’ve got a week left at the ol’ job (only 5 more days….only 5 more days…only 5 more days) and it looks as though one of my bosses has decided that the best way to send me off into my new life is to abuse the hell out of me until I’m out the door.

Now don’t misunderstand, his constant horrible abuse is what led me to leave this position (well that and this crazy need for personal enjoyment I have) but he really is cranking it up to 11.

Have you ever read The Devil Wears Prada…..yeah EXACTLY. Though Miranda Priestly might be slightly less psychotic then the nitwits I’m handling.

Let’s just say that neither of my bosses could find their own ass with both hands, a map, a flashlight and a minimum of six sherpas.

Set Phasers to Fun!

Well kids I’m proud to announce that I am marching down my list of getting my life together. I have a few interviews set up in a field that could potentially turn into a career. Which is very exciting. I’m actually thrilled really, really thrilled. I think sometimes If forget that I’m actually a really good employee and a super attractive candidate for most people. I won’t get into details but let’s just say that for my age I have an abnormal amount of experience and education. I think my current employer tends to forget this and in turn I forget as well.

So since this piece seems to be falling into place its now time for me to start seriously considering some new hobbies and some new fun and exciting things to do. Every weekend I have this overwhelming urge to do something new but I’m not sure what to do or where to go to discover some new things. I’m beginning to worry that I’m turning painfully vanilla and boring. I think at my ripe young age I should be doing exciting things that would potentially embarrass my mother but instead I seem to be on my mothers routine. Hmmm……sad. I just don’t want to be one of those people who is not an active participant in their own life. I don’t want to be the person who just goes to work, goes to the gym, goes home. I feel like I’m literally wasting my life by not going out there and finding something and reaching for the big brass ring and drinking from the big juicy cup of life.

This may partially have to do with the fact that for the majority of my life all I have done is work and go to school. I naturally don’t have much to show for it money wise since most of what I made went to my schooling cost. Now I guess I feel like I should’ve had all of these super fun and crazy experiences. I missed out. I totally missed the boat on so many things and now I really do feel as if I’m stuck in this highly responsible, adult role that I never even realized that I took on. I guess I just don’t know how to get out.

Does anyone want to share with me their favorite hobby or activity. I definitely need some ideas since I feel like I’m in a fun slump.
