So the little I-am-so-adorable-you're-ok-with-me-peeing-here-right?-dog thinks she's screwed because I am not working anymore. I feel the need to elaborate, or justify, or defend, or explain, or something.
Yes, I quit my job at Yahoo!. Yes, this is after plugging away at the law for a decade (ok, that includes law school, but law school really really sucked). Yes, it didn't matter that I finally found a job I truly enjoyed with intelligent, motivated, normal (key word: normal) people. Yes, it was the most difficult decision that I've ever had to make. Yes, of course you would have done it differently. And yes, Joe is officially my Sugar Daddy.
(And for all those naysayers. No, it wasn't because of the commute. Yahoo! rocked the house in many ways, and if I hear any criticism of it, I will have to take you out back and beat you with a stick).
So you are probably wondering, then, why I left. Why does a dog lick his balls? Because he can.
The next question you are probably wondering is what am I doing with my time. So far, not much. I've managed to cook dinner, the first time in many months. I managed to vacuum the carpets, the first time in many months. And I managed to do all our laundry, not the first time in many months (because let's face it, that would be just gross). I have grand illusions as to what the future may hold for me, but for now, I'm thankful to be able to wake up without an alarm clock, take leisurely walks through the Presidio, try all the new classes at the JCC gym (the Cardio Latino was, um, interesting), and be appreciative of the life that I worked my at least part of my ass off for, and of the husband who continues to work his ass off to sustain it.
Now, let's all give a shout out to Joe.

"JOE TO". Where can I get one?!?! Seriously, you've worked very hard in your life; a little break is well-deserved and often needed by everyone!
