It's been a lot

[jethrien]

The bullet points of the last six months:

- Last few months of the last job were very bad.

- The previous company botched their IPO so thoroughly we've had deeply distressing tax implications this year. (We can afford it, it just really sucks and has been incredibly stressful.)

- Last job implies - new job! With significantly more responsibilities, but money to match. Also a bit of a hot mess but in a completely different way and that way has a lot of things I can actually fix. I've got a behind-schedule product launch, my new industry is on strike, and I've got hella HR issues with my team. But I'm in the process of fixing A and C, and I'm having (stressful) fun.

- In between jobs, went to Mexico on a spontaneous solo trip. Saw Mayan pyramids, swam in cenotes with bats, ate really amazing food.

- Just got back from family trip to Greece that Chuckro did a substantial post.

- Turned in the edits on debut novel to editor on Sunday night.

- On hopefully last pass on the next novel before it goes to my agent.

- Still legally can't tell you about potentially interesting third development (very frustrating).

Whee!

Congrats on new job! Excited to hear you're shut of the last place, thank goodness. Your Greece trip sounds amazing and I've no doubt you kicked Mexico's butt as well, GO GO NOVELS, and I'll be excited to hear about the mystery thing whenever the mystery restriction lifts. Woo! :D
