Leap, and the net will appear

I believe whole-heartedly in this theory. I have been charmed to have the faith that no matter what happens, it will be alright in the end. If it's not alright, it's not the end.

I quit my job today. The same job I've had for 5 years. It's amicable and they are throwing me a party and now the girl who has been there the longest will be there no more. I'm taking my panties out of a wad and getting on with it. 19-24 are some pretty formative years. I shed that outer skin, learned that I can't always be the hero and nothing ever really goes according to plan and how to butterfly a 6 inch gash and seperate parents spitting on eachother over a bad call and that despite the fact that she's an Olympian and a professional figure skater, Michelle Kwan is a really nice girl.

And what can I say? I love a good hoopla over me.

I will miss it terribly and I can't convince myself otherwise. These people have opened up their lives to me and allowed me be a part of their children's lives. I think I may be doing a lot of babysitting.

And in honor of this decision as well as my 25th birthday I'm throwing one hell of a party. It's called skank n' swank and I'm looking for a big, cheap room to throw it in. I think everyone should be required to throw a bash every 5 years or so just to celebrate the fact that they are still upright.
