If the universe unfolds as it should, I will be in the office, at my desk, wading through two weeks' (punctuation ninjas... did I do that right?) worth of email and voice mail backlog, in just under eight hours.
The past two weeks haven't exactly flown by, but it sure doesn't seem like it's been two weeks at this particular moment. The past 48 hours have involved all kinds of housework and manual labour, though, which sure helps keep a weekend from seeming all that restful. Ah well.
For the first time in I-don't-know-how-many-years, I don't dread going back to work. (It's also been I-don't-know-how-many-years since I actually took a proper vacation - usually it was just a day off here and there to pad out a long weekend or move or take care of some errand that couldn't be done outside of business hours.) That feels really nice.
2008 was a real mixed bag, but I'm starting 2009 off by going back to a job I'm looking forward to going back to.
I'm choosing to take that as a promising sign.

It's a tremendous feeling walking into a place that leaves you satisfied at the end of the day...
Hats off to you my dear! Good people deserve good things!
