May – Update

So last month was kind of a hell of a month for several reasons. I had found out that I was being laid off from my job at the beginning of April and so was the rest of my department. The next three weeks were taken up with interviews, applications, and making sure everything at my day job didn’t suffer from my highly distracted focus. It’s important in customer service to make sure of things like that.

As luck and a whole lot of prayers and well wishes would have it, I landed a great job at the end of April and I started it May 13th. Training went amazing and now I’m deep into the thick of and loving every minute. I miss my old coworkers but we’d been seeing this coming for a while. We just didn’t know when. The adjustment period has been better and certainly shorter than the last time I switched jobs. However, between that and some other family shenanigans going down, it’s left me pretty drained and kind of brainless. Exhaustion is the eater of creativity and weakener of walls against depression. So it’s been recuperationville for me a lot the past month.

This month, however, I’m working to get back in the swing of things. So there will be more frequent posting and some actual reviews from the media I’ve seen recently and also some of the books I’ve been reading.
