If I didn't get this job, I might never have moved into the cute apartment with Myka. And I might never have gotten together with Martin. I am thankful for this job, if only because my life was conveniently arranged around it for a while, and that allowed those happy, happy things to happen.
But now, I'm pretty sure Myka and I will renew the lease. And I'm even more sure that Martin and I will renew everything, every day. My life is now arranging itself around those things -- and in the case of Martin, it will go on arranging itself around him, life with him.
At the start, my living situation may have been about being near work, but now it's about living. (That sounds to me now a cheesy, awkward turn of phrase, but it sort of whined to be made.) So any way I look at it, it's okay to change jobs now.
Wish me luck, or pray for me, whichever one you believe in. :) I'm feeling optimistic.

Martin and I are looking to get an online magazine off the ground. You can see the skeleton here: http://contdmagazine.co.cc. The theme for the first issue is "Home." Submit yer poetry, prose, visual art, music, films, etc. to contdmagazine[at]gmail[dot]com if you'd like in.
Bonus thing about my job, I guess: I learned how to build for Wordpress, and it is fun.
