Beginnings (and endings)

Ok, well things are starting to calm down a bit. I felt like the last couple of weeks were just a whirlwind. Tomorrow is my last day in my department. What a strange feeling. I thought I had found my dream job, but it is not. I am very excited to begin the new chapter in my life in my new job. However, it is always bittersweet to leave something behind. While I look forward to the opportunities my new position gives me, my current job is fun and for the most part, my co-workers are like an extended family. Yes, they get on my nerves, but whose family doesn't?
The flip side is...I can still remain involved in the arts in Cleveland, especially now that I live closer. I just need to find some spare time.

This weekend is going to be great. I will get to catch up with some old friends on Saturday which I am very much looking forward to. Tom is taking the LSAT, so I get some "me time" on Saturday morning. I plan on watching White Oleander and then maybe doing some studying.

Much to Report

Well, it has taken me awhile to get this updated because so much is going on.

1. Tom and I get the keys to our new apartment tonight. We will be back in Cleveland! We will no longer have to drive all over creation to get anywhere, whether it be school, work, friends etc. I don't know how we will handle all the free time. So, for you Clevelanders out there...we will be moving this weekend if anyone feels like carrying boxes and furniture up four flights of stairs. Come on, it will be awesome! Just kidding. I know everyone has had their turn helping us move, and some have even said that they refuse to help again. Totally understandable given the amount of times we have moved!

2. I am going to be changing jobs. I got a position in another department and will be moving over there in a couple of weeks. I had an interview at another place last week. When I left the interview, I had a gut feeling that it would be a bad move if I went there. I can't put my finger on exactly what the problem was, but it was something. The group I am going to here, though, is fabulous and I am extremely excited about joining their team!

3. LEIMUN is slowing down. I should be super busy, but with everything else going on, I had to take a step back. Everyone seems to be picking up and stepping up! That makes me breathe a little easier.

4. School. 12-1/2 hours every other Saturday.....enough said!

Anyway...that's what is happening in my world. So, I have had little time to do anything, including updating my blog.
