The deed is done.

I have resigned my current job.  Yes, I finally decided, was persuaded, etc. to take the job with the company who made me the offer before Christmas.  They sweetened the deal by upping the salary another $10,000 and agreeing to pick up my COBRA charges until their benefits kick in. 

My former boss Chris who works there actually sealed the deal.  He said "Don't come because I want you to.  Don't come because we need you.  Come because you will be treated with respect and appreciation and you haven't had that in a very long time."  How could I say no to that?

So now comes the uncomfortable 2 weeks until I actually leave and then I think I will take a couple of days off before I start the new gig.  I'm excited about it, it is a great opportunity and (I hope) it is the first step on the road to fulfilling my dream of living in Vermont.

But I'm so tired.
