This could easily be one of the longest weeks of my life.
I've been working from 5AM-2PM everyday, which means I'm waking up between 3:45-4 to get ready to leave. If that wasn't enough, I've been dealing with finalities (is that a word?) of moving, changing addresses, getting old and new bills paid, making sure everything is taken care of.
But yesterday, was the worst of all. After leaving my house at 4AM to work a full eight hours (in Kirkland), I then went straight to a job interview downtown Seattle. I interviewed for nearly 2 1/2 hours before it was over, then drove like hell all the way up to Lynnwood for a meeting with some bitch from 24 hour fitness. I was there from 5PM-6:30PM, and then drove back home to MLT where I promptly proceeded to die. I hadn't eaten anything other than a cup of yogurt and a cup of oatmeal at 9AM, I had a headache all day long, and the running around and stress of the day just got to me so much that I ended up laying in bed around 7-8PM almost crying because I felt so horrible. I thought some sleep and some food would make me feel better, but today I feel just as bad, so I'm left wondering if I didn't get some nasty little virus.
However, my long week has been also one of the most rewarding I've ever had. Not only did I prove to myself that I can kick ass at any job I tackle, I proved that to my bosses. I suprised myself in my want to become a morning person. I want to go to work early and get off early, so I can have time to enjoy my friends and family. And most importantly, an hour after my epicly long job interview last night, they called and offered it to me. I'm starting May 5th and I'll be making more money than I ever have in my life, and then some. Not only is it a job I could see myself loving to do, it's something I could be really good at. And it is also allowing me to quit my current job, which I'm not really getting into (even though I pwn face at it), and spend time next week with my mother. She's coming out to visit tomorrow and our entire household was in distress about the visit. Mainly, I was upset I wouldn't have time to spend with her, and Scott was upset that he had nothing but time to spend with her.
It all, really, really worked out. I'm looking so forward to this next chapter in my life and I'm so excited to start it. In the meantime I'm going to try to stomach down some toast and then lay on the couch for the better part of the day in attempts to get over whatever the hell is bugging me.
