yesterday was my last day at my old job. the week has been frantic with last minute meetings, to-do lists, hand offs and good byes. no time for boredom or blogging or much introspection.
people have started to ask me about this optimism experiment. asking for an update, how its going, what's the latest. to be honest, i have been so strung out i haven't had much time to think about joy or optimism. nor have i had the time or emotional energy to freak out or feel sorry for myself. exhaustion has won out over higher-order emotion.
i have made one freeing decision, however, in the midst of the pressure cooker.
i'm going to go to portland to visit my dear friend T on Dec. 6th rather than going to the Epic Ex wedding. as i type that, i realize that it really is a decision i have made rather than an option i am considering. i figured i'd rationalize spending at least a plane tickets' worth on a sexy but not too sexy dress to wear to the wedding, why not spend the weekend doing something that i know will be fun and drama-free? the perfect alabi.
Your Fabulous Former Girlfriend declines with regret as she will be posing as a ski bunny at a lodge on mount hood on the day you celebrate the exchange of your vows.
do you think i could write that in on the reply card, or would it sound too cheeky??
