The last time I was laid off unexpectedly. I was forced to find something and I wasnt ready. My ex had just picked up and moved to Iowa without telling us, the kids were traumatized. It was a bad, bad time. I'm doing this on my terms now, so the guilt is much less. It's time.

Plus, this time around I have a great friend who constantly bombards me with:
"Fuck this! Your boss is taking advantage of you! GET OUT! You like being fucked over? You can do this!!" And my all time favorite, "Now that you have a new job you can support me in the manner in which I am accustom to." Yeah. Like *that's* going to happen.
