Relief and Joy

Relief and Joy

The five-day heat wave is supposed to break today.

And this morning I learned that I’ve been offered the job I’d been waiting to hear about. Someone pulled some strings.

I will remain employed.

I can’t tell you how happy I am. And relieved.

I’m going to enjoy this weekend.

Anyway, it’s really been an exhausting week, blog-wise, so I’m going to cut it short today, except for a link:

Doonesbury is online. Not just today’s strip. Not just yesterday’s. No, you can search the entire 30-year archive of Doonesbury comic strips. Wow.

One more thing: Ernie, I’m sorry to hear about your layoff. But you know — with guys like this on your side, and with all your great abilities, I’m sure things will turn out just fine for you. Hang in there, and best of luck.

  1. Whooo! That’s super, Jeff. Someone up there likes you. No, scratch that — a lot of people down here like you, and it’s paid off.

    And it’ll continue to pay off. Keep that in mind.

  2. Thank you for the kind encouragement, mister Tin Man sir. I know you’re going through some work drama for yourself — it’s just the fear of an unknown future that unsettles us, right? I’ll hang in there if you do as well. :)

  3. The heat-wave in the midwest broke yesterday, and was proceeded by a brief-but-powerful thunderstorm. The weather now is a gorgeous seventy degrees, with cool breezes and many sunny dispositions brightening the neighborhood. I hope that your neck of the woods is just as pleasant! Congratulations on your job!
