Tipping Point

Today ended up being my last day on the first project of my career. I won't lie and say I worked 'til the end or some BS like that. I pretty much haven't done much actual work since my phone interview. I dealt with some 'hot' items, but other than that I made travel plans and said good bye. The movers are coming tomorrow to "survey" my crap and tell me how much it'll weigh. Well, first thing in the morning is my exit interview. It's a good thing my HR rep is my buddy 'cause I am just south of drunk at the moment. We went out for the little one's sweet sixteen this evening and I had a few. If you asked me a couple years ago I wouldn't have been sure about the whole "step mother" gig, but this last year or so it's been so amazing watching her grow up and mature into a beautiful young woman. I couldn't be more proud and I am so torn that I won't be here for her for the next two years. Hopefully she'll forgive me eventually. But for now I leave her with the promise of senior prom dress shopping at the Mall of America. And with that, my bed is calling!
