Well, everyone else was doing it...

So I wrote an enormous rant on the election and human rights and then I figured who cares? It's not like anyone who disagrees with me hasn't heard my arguments before, and those who agree with me don't need to hear it.  Preaching to the choir and all that.

I still don't understand how some people live with themselves, but that's not my problem.  Just like it's not other people's problem to worry about how other people are living their lives.  

That's all I'll say about that.

So, I'm kinda blah lately.  I officially quit my job yesterday and I felt a little sad.  Not sad that I'm leaving but sad that I can't be useful there anymore.  Sad that I honestly don't want to work anyway and upset at myself for being relieved about not having to worry about it anymore.  Mad at myself for therefore putting more pressure on my husband who doesn't exactly enjoy his job either.  Mad at myself for throwing away a job when it's so hard these days to get a job at all.  Hoping that the person who took my place needs the money more than I do.

The cookbook may have to wait until January.  I think I already mentioned that.  I at least wish I had something to do for that, but nobody is even sending in recipes.  Nobody's going to until the promise of some NKOTB involvement comes through.  So for 2 months I do nothing?  I need something to put my time into.

Don't feel guilty about doing what you need to do for your own health and wellbeing. A person invests a lot of physical and emotional energy into her job, and a poor fit can make you absolutely miserable. I have twice in my ten-year career quit a job before I had anything else lined up, just because it was eating me alive. I lucked into the best job I'll ever have - I complain a lot in my LJ, but unless demand picks up for fingerpaint artists or cupcake trucks, this is a good as it gets - so as long you aren't in danger of starving or losing your house, hold out for something tolerable. Most people aren't going to wind up with their dream job, but everyone deserves something they can at least live with.

I had to quit for medical reasons-Unless they can find out what's causing it, I won't be working again. I think it's a mix of anxiety and some side effects of spina bifida. Basically it sucks. LOL

But thank you for your support :)
