Merry Christmas to me,

I got a new job! I honestly can't wait to start. I spent all day at my job thinking about how excited I would be to get it, and I now I no longer have to wish. I interviewed last week and then had a phone interview this week and everything went well and the director called today and I loved his transition. He began the conversation asking about my upcoming days off (the agency always has the week between Christmas and New Years off) and I only have Friday and Monday off. He said "if you worked here you'd have next week off... well, do you want to work here?" Um, yeah, I do want to work there. Fuckin' made my day. Carmichael Lynch, here I come. Now, I just have to tell my current employer that I am high-tailing it outta there. I like my agency, but there are no openings for the job that I want to do and I do NOT want to wait around until there are. At first I really liked my job and didn't mind going in, but not anymore. Just hearing the director talk about some of the stuff I would get to work on, I was so excited. I also love the fact that I will be insured in just a few short weeks. Then I can go to the chiropractor again (which I need to since I fell UP the CEMENT stairs yesterday).

I am in shock. I had a really good feeling about the interviews, but it's a different story to be victorious. I feel like I am dreaming. I'm sure Adam is sick of me saying it already, but I got the job. I need to repeat it to myself every now and then just so I can remember that it actually happened.

Speaking of Christmas- EVERYONE at work was saying "Merry Christmas" all day long. Not a big deal, but then they all commented on how "nice" it is to hear someone say it instead of Happy Holidays. I feel like it is ingrained in my brain to only say Happy Holidays and not specify any of them. It covers all of the possible Holidays that maybe occurring in the upcoming weeks. Works for me. Someone starting ranting on about being PC and people getting offended about it all. Maybe since I grew up during the transition from 'Christmas break' to 'Holiday Break' that I don't think people are being oversensitive about their Holidays terms and that we do not need to say Merry Christmas to everyone we see.
