OMG it is FINALLY done. I left. I couldn't stand the waiting anymore, so I emailed my supervisor this morning (yes, it was easier for me to spend a half hour composing an email than to actually walk up to her desk and start a conversation; surprised, anyone?...). Right on time, it seems, for as soon as I hit "send", it turned out the boss was going to talk to me anyway. To cut a long story short, my production rate had improved slightly over the last two weeks, but was STILL far behind the rest of the team - so they would have to terminate me anyway... unless I preferred the official version to be that I had "terminated myself" and given a proper two weeks' notice. Which I did. That means, of course, that I don't qualify for unemployment insurance - but that's fine. I still have over $15,000 in the bank, so I was actually more worried about how the fact of having been fired might influence my chances with future employers...

Anyway... I'm almost ashamed of the profound relief I feel right now, as well as of the deep and abiding joy derived from the prospect of SLEEPING IN tomorrow.:D Yeah, I know... my mother would be so utterly scandalized. OMGyouhavenojob, howcanyoubehappy, youshouldrunaroundlikecrazytearingyourhairout. Or something like that. But fortunately I am NOT my mother (thank heavens for that, LOL). And I am not going to stop enjoying life's simple pleasures and drown in guilt just because I had to quit a stupid job, thank you very much. I am going to read some slash and go to bed dreaming nice and lovely dreams... then wake up refreshed and well-rested, take a long, hot bath and start a new life with a positive attitude. How's that?

Actually, now that the tension/excitement is wearing off, I feel totally drained and uber-drowsy.;)Good night, everyone.:)
