BOOYAH!

So, it's me last day here in ol' Purdue country. I can't say that I will miss this place much. Yesterday was the magical finger printing day and that was something special. Their lobby furniture looked like it came right out of That 70's Show. Ugly ass plaid chairs! They were sad chairs. A family of 7 showed up to be fingerprinted right after me, so I'm glad I got there when I did. Fun-fun, still picking ink out of my finger nails. :(

New job seemed a bit confused when I came in with the fingerprint card before their paperwork had been filled out. I was told I could go do that before coming into the new place for that particular paperwork. Blah-blah-blah. It's all good after the initial confusion. I mean I'm starting on MONDAY! YAY! Buzzzzzzzzzz. Time out. I've got to reference sheets that need to be filled out by reliable professional types. Wulf was an easy choice to make, he filled it out and I was on my merry way. The second one was a bit of a quandary, especially since I just wanted to get them done before Monday and they wanted those sheets turned in as early as possible etc etc. So I went on over to WVH ACT office. *gulp*

I hadn't been back there since the day I left last January. It was tough and I wondered if I could even count on my old supervisor to fill it out with even remotely decent things to say about me. The other therapist that I worked with was unavailable to look it over. The whole time, the secretary wasn't in the reception area, so I was waiting around for a bit hoping to get someone to fill this darn thing out. The office psychologist meanders through. I talk him up for a bit; he fills it out, albeit with brief and concise doctor remarks in doctor’s scribe. VOILA! I'm done. I don't have to look back at WVH and worry about poor references or other stupid crap, because I have a job starting Monday. MONDAY! :)

Being that it took over 14 months to find a new job in social work, I don't intend to screw this one up and I do intend to have something lined up before leaving and some money saved up and and and, be prepared for contingencies as best as I can. :) It's all I can do at this point. Meanwhile, break time is over and I have some stuff to do yet. I lose the computer at noon and then El Tubbo is here. Fun-fun-fun.

Tammolly~ All giddy and stuff.

...So if I die today I'll be the happy phantom
And I'll go wearin' my naughties like a jewel
I'm still an angel to a girl who hates to sin…
