I admit, thanks, lw, she is very slowly starting to see the light. Very slowly. I think she just missed me a lot (she comes around mostly only when I'm there) and is slowly talking to her dad. Her mom not quite so much yet, but more than before. I admit, we're just going in baby steps, which is much better than where we were. I admit, the Mister's commute sounds exactly like yours, distance-wise. Only today there was a big rig fire on the bridge so he had to take a much longer route and it took him a little over 2 hours to get to work. I admit we'll both be glad for him when he doesn't have that commute anymore (he's transferring up here - yay!) I admit, in CA, IT jobs - unless supervisory - are paid hourly now, for the most part. I used to work crazy hours when I was exempt, now they don't want to pay all that overtime so I got my life back, and if I do work late, they pay me for it. I admit my boss is freaking neurotic and so condescending. I wouldn't even know how to describe her, but she treats my team - a group of very smart professionals - like fucking kindergarteners. It can be extremely irritating, and today I had a lot of trouble holding back my irritation (as did the rest of my team). I can handle her extreme micro-management style. I can handle her rude quips to people. But the condescending shit has got to stop. I admit tomorrow I might not bite my tongue. On a happier note, I admit the Mister has a realtor coming to his house tonight to talk about listing it, and we're making appointments to look at houses up here this Sunday. I admit I don't think it's all really hit me yet...I kinda don't believe it until it happens, even though it's happening lol.
