When he called this afternoon, it felt as though the Gods of Limbo were really getting their rocks off. I was standing in my kitchen, waist high boxes on all sides, talking to my New Boss in NYC.
And I felt neither here, nor there.
New Boss asked how packing was going. "Haven't changed your mind or anything, have you?"
I laughed. "No, no. Though if I have to pack one more box..."
"Making the big move this weekend?"
"No, actually, not until the 3rd. I'm staying with a friend in the mean time. Oh, I did want to ask what time things got going on Monday morning..."
"We get started pretty early around here. Meeting starts at 8:30 and it'd be great if you could be there. "
I thought about my 7:30 Mondays at the Monkey Firm and smiled. "Perfect."
"We're looking forward to seeing you Monday morning then. And please, if you have any questions, don't be bashful."
I thanked him for calling, hung up and made my way through the cardboard maze. I hung up my garment bag on the closet door and threw in work clothes that looked as though they'd travel well. Then, went to my computer and bought a train ticket.
I'm starting to feel more there than here. And it's really fucking bizarre.

Posted by: janna at March 24, 2004 10:17 PMI personally think the worst part is the last couple of weeks at the current place. My job here ends next week, hopefully I'll go right into the new one. But I'm so ready to leave here it's ridiculous. Even without the move, I'm already more there than here. Congrats to you though, Fish!
