A decision.

Oh friends.

I am very proud and excited to announce that on Monday (just days from now!) I am quitting my job. I'm not positive I have another job (though I've interviewed a bit and have happy feelings about one...) and I'm entirely ready to just get the hell out.

I'm ready for something new - and, more importantly, something smart. I don't know how you feel about your life, but I'm not one for bullshit. I'm also organized, sensible, reasonable and very awesome. So, it's a good thing I'm leaving my job.

In further excellent news....

• A bar opened on our block!
• According to the present plan, I will be taking two(!) classes this summer. Chem 212: Survey of Organic and Biochemistry and Biology 121: Intro to Biology. Seriously. I think the schedule of it all will workout nicely, except for the finals-right-after-my-wedding. But whatever. I've been handling a 5-hour class two nights a week along with working 40 hours a week for two semesters now. I'm a tough student. Thankfully with many hours of studying worked into my life...
• My sister-in-law-to-be and I are sharing a membership in a CSA (community supported agriculture)! We are members/subscribers/farm-friends with Big Head Farm in Michigan (Mom and Dad, is this what Michigan is meant to do? Maybe.) We'll be sharing a family portion of produce, herbs and flowers for 24 weeks. Let me know if you want to come over for some food! I'm excited to be helping a real farmer -- and the story of Big Head Farm is delightful. I'm also psyched for a heap of produce every week so we can try new food and experiment with totally unknown stuff, too.
• I'm running the Soldier Field 10-Miler on Memorial Day Weekend! I'm training by myself. And I'm reading Born to Run for motivation, or whatever. I'm realizing that this time last year I was very running-focused. Now I'm very chemistry- and wedding-focused. And need to fit running in. I can do it though... it's only 10 miles, right?
