Ok so seriously I got fired today. Ugh. I thought this morning when I woke up that today was going to be the best fucking day ever. HAHA riiiight. So whatever. This means the end of my overstay in Cottonwood. I'm getting the fuck out of Arizona and I'm going back to NM. Where I belong. Where I know people. And where people know me.

Kick In the Pants mike5816 July 28 2006, 22:12:59 UTC

It's like, sometimes you known you need to move on, so that your life can progress, but that because you feel comfortable in your life, then you go into denial about needing to move on, so then the Cosmic Forces of the Universe have to give you a kick in the pants to get you jump started.... something like totally destroys that comfort zone. Thus, losing a job.

Me, I got laid off in 2003, ...and thus left Alaska and moved to Texas, broke my arm, went into deep debt, enrolled in graduate school, and met my hubby, and am on the verge of realizing my lifelong career goals. The career and hubby wouldn't have happened without grad school, which wouldn't have happened without the debt, which wouldn't have happened without the breaking of the arm, which wouldn't have happened if I hadn't moved to Texas, which wouldn't have happened if I hadn't been laid off. I'd still be living in Alaska, feeling lonely, and stuck in a go-nowhere job.

Yup, big ole kick in the pants.
