Cool it, SB...

So I am RIDICULOUSLY excited about my new gig. Like--INSANELY excited. I can't stop thinking about it. I told my boss today I feel like one of those race horses at the track when the jockey is on their back and the gates are closed but just about to fly open and the horses are all stamping and snorting and tossing their heads. Dude - that's me. I'm so PUMPED to get settled and starting kicking a** and taking names. But...I need to chill. Lots to learn yet. Lots of details to attend to. Like, uh, where are we going to LIVE for one thing? Hello. Small but important factor. And getting my son into a good high school. And selling our house. Yada yada yada.

But can I just squeal on for a few more seconds? Because I went to my new location yesterday to spend the day there and I went into my new office and...wow. It felt so surreal. It's just an office, right? But it felt so cool. Looking out over the glass windows and seeing the city below me. Sitting my new chair for the first time. Looking in the desk drawers and stuff. Even turning the light switch on and off. I KNOW. I sound like a TOTAL dork. But I can't help it. I kept thinking, "OMG - this is going to be MY OFFICE." Hello. So cool. So freaking cool. I have an office now in my current job. But...well...this was my NEW office.

The assistants who work there were so sweet. I have an assistant, too, btw. A what? What do I do with one of THOSE? I'm so used to doing everything myself. I'll be like, "Hey! How are you? Have a great day doing whatever!" :-) lol. I actually share her with another person, but she was so awesome. She was all, "I'll make your office all pretty for you. Just ship anything you want to my attention." So sweet. Of course, I'd never charge the company for shipping when I'm like 2 hours away and could just drive it up myself. But still. So nice to offer, don't you think? I kinda loved her for that.

I gave so many hugs yesterday I lost count. And I found out there's a fitness facility on the fifth floor. And a masseuse that comes on Wednesdays. Hello!!!! I'm happy. Massages+Me=Happiness. Garage parking. Super fine facilities. I'm so tripping out over this whole thing. Cannot.Believe.It's.Happening.To.Me.

My management team is AMAZING. My former boss is now my peer and we work so amazingly well together. We're going to be such an awesome team. So exciting! I'm so happy!!!!!!

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

Okay, alright. I know. You're puking. "Cool it, SB." 'Kay. Bu-bye for now.
(But I'm really EXCITED! Just sayin'!)
