Freedom From The Pursuit Of Happiness

I quit my job this week.  I don’t think I’ve ever quit a job without having already snagged another one.  There’s just something about being worked past the point of exhaustion for six months, harrassed, intimidated, and insulted that makes you do things you wouldn’t normally do.

On the upside…I have an interview Monday and one Tuesday.  Whoever hires me will be gaining a very experienced and top-notch employee who always gives more than she gets in return.  Too bad, so sad for those who failed to see my value and to hear me when I expressed that I was fatigued and needed a couple of vacation days.  I’ve never heard of employers who send you vast chore lists to do the morning of your first vacation day and then follows them up with endless e-mails of “Are you done yet?”  Ah well…that’s in my past…onwards and upwards.

Today is my eleventh day of Jenny Craig, and so far I have lost 7-3/4 pounds.  I know, right… Awesome!!!!  My consultant said this week “we’re going to talk about exercise”.  I can do that…talk about exercise, I mean.  I’ve already prepared items to talk about:

1.  Talk about the tennis courts across the street from our house.

2.  Talk about the Wii Fit I have downstairs…all hooked up and everything.

3.  Talk about the gym I belong to…and how I can go there and watch people exercise.

Yep…I’m all ready to talk about exercise.

The Jenny Craig food is really good.  I especially like the pasta fagioli and the lasagna.
