Damn. Anyone who read the previous entry knows that that was a real meat-grinder of a week. Most of it, anyhoo.
I've digested the whole assault and evidence situations. Not that I'll ever be "over it" or thrilled about it, but the wound has healed despite the still-aching scar.
In any case, this regained calm and perspective is a lot more conducive to the most wonderful time of the year. And lemme tell ya what's already been said a million times: If there are Powers That Be, they have a brutal sense of humor.
Less than a week after dropping me into an abyss that would make Nietzsche squeal like a 5-year-old girl, and in this lovely economy, they gave Mike another job that pays even more than his previous one. He started this morning after finding out Friday, nearly doubling our income.
This, and the impending lengthy visits with my family (and then Connie) in late January, as well as the prospect of getting my car and bringing it to Chicago, has sent me into what looks very much like an upward spiral.
Suddenly, returning to school in late February and getting the job I'd like doesn't feel quite so far away
Huge thanks to Mike and Melissa, and my friends, family, and readers for supporting me through yet another roller coaster (this one called 2008). Happy holidays. =)
The two readers I still have may have noticed already:
I haven't updated for a while since updating after not updating for an even longer while. (To promise more updates, no less.) There's either going to be more to follow soon, or, failing that, likely some domain scalping page or trans porn site.
Stay tuned, true believers. I have tales to tell.
Whether or not they actually end up here is anyone's guess, but I'm leaning towards "yes." Hope you stick around.
