Ready for Change - and Calmly for Once

The last time I visited the corporate mother ship in Ohio, there was a big banner saying, "Be ready for rapid change!"  Well, I made good on that claim when I gave notice a few short weeks ago; and now I'm preparing for the new adventure to start tomorrow.

Normally, I'd be nervous as shit with a new job starting - especially in a new sector and working in an office again with real people.  Add to that the (at least) two hour commute door to door, and I should be more uptight than Michele Bachmann's ass-lodged head.  But for some reason, I'm oddly calm.

Perhaps it's the anti-anxiety cocktail my doctor and I have landed on over the last few months.  Or maybe I'm just getting older and have been through this enough to know that it's nothing to be stressed-silly about. I don't know, maybe it was the doses. Whatever the reason, I'm enjoying my newly found calmness and looking forward to tomorrow with eager anticipation for the new things that await.

One thing I know for sure: I'm sofa king happy to no longer be responsible for hitting a monthly sales quota.  Quite possibly, that alone was enough to replace the usual stress with patient happiness.  Now, assuming we have this anxiety thing under control, we can look at my attention deficit dis, discord, distemper, dis, dis...discussions, that's it, discussions can be fun and interesting if both people are into the topic.  Speaking of topics, what was I just saying?
