A "career" milestone

[bluelander]

Hard day. Therapy this morning was rough, but necessary. I skipped it last week. Life was too much. When I got to work, I had some good news in my inbox: they're finally starting the process of hiring me on full-time with benefits and such. Had to pore over some insurance information and fill out forms and make decisions that hopefully won't bite me in the ass. That was mentally draining on top of a rough morning, and then I had to work late to stay late to make up time.

All this will hopefully culminate in getting what I need more than anything else: TIME OFF. I haven't had an extra day off in three years that didn't require a grim trigonometry balancing my physical health, mental health, and financial stability. I hope they can get me hired before the winter holidays. I don't celebrate american or religious holidays, but if I can get a few days OFF-off, it might heal my soul just enough that even I, me, will carve the roast beast.
