i didn't get fired.
i got laid off!
so now. . . i wait, for the moment. i should be getting two offers this week on the positions i was already interviewing for. i have 7 weeks of severance pay to get me through. if everything falls apart, i have some time and some money to freelance, get some much-needed sleep, and figure out what comes next.
still, it was disconcerting. 25% of the company is gone, with virtually no notice. i'm very worried for my team, who are not ready to take on the entire team management by themselves. i only cried when i said goodbye to them. no one could ever possibly ask for two better, more loyal, and more incredibly talented employees.
what a very strange week.

I think more than Boston itself, I'm just attracted to a city that's not NYC and certainly not Lake George. I've never actually been to Salem, But I'm currently staying with a friend in Newburyport, and I really like the old north shore town vibe.
re: ps: I didn't really go out while I was in Dot. Just hung out with my cousin and her husband and relaxed. tonight is going to be the drinking night. staying at the hostel in Kenmore. any suggestions on where to go? I want to avoid turning to my old haunts for lack of a better idea.
Maybe I'll check out Salem on my way back to the city today.
