on december 19, 2002, i quit my job. it was quite an ordeal, since i gave them a whole year's notice! my frustration and joy about this has been documented.

now i feel i need a counter point to that thread. because here i am now, some three weeks after that momentous occasion, trying to come to terms with my unemployment.

today i reread my goals that i had posted when i first started the countdown. it was good; it reminded me that i did not quit my job simply because i was disatisfied with it, but that i had become unemployed for a very specific reason; to find myself. though in many respects i feel like i have come a long way towards finding that out, i think there is much to be learned and discovered.

such as sleeping in late. do you know how hard that is? it's so hard, that even though i have stayed up until 3 in the morning for several nights, i still have not managed to fall asleep past 9:30 am.
