Back!

[porter_inc]

I have been running since we got back from our trip. We got in about three yesterday afternoon, but Kevin had to go to bed right away to try and get some sleep before his first shift started. I went ahead and ran errands while he was doing that, and then with all the getting up with him, going back to bed, then getting back up for work, I didn't have a chance to sit down and post anything. Plus, work kept me pretty busy.

I told Kev everything, and after he stopped threatening to kill Alex, we sat down and talked about a game plan. I suppose it's not so much a game plan as a "Can I afford to quit my job" plan. I did tell him that I had potential job opportunities available to me and then he asked me the big question: Was I really happy doing the suit and tie thing?

It made me stop and think. Going back to work today also made me stop and think. It wasn't just because of the situation Somers was/is putting me in, but when I sat down and imagined myself still doing my job until the day I retired, I became incredibly depressed. Then, I typed up my resignation and put it on my boss's desk. I just walked out of there. I still can't believe I did it.

Kev's asleep now (his first day on the new job went well, he said), but he should be getting up soon so we can have a talk about what I've done. I'm not going to start panicking until tomorrow.

Not sure just yet. A few days to take care of business, then four days to get back to Terra, so at least a week.

Then you guys can have an awesome reunion and re-celebrate his birthday?

[lt-wes-janson.livejournal.com]

Well, maybe. He's supposed to be heading to Brazil today, and we have no idea how long he's going to be down there.

Dammit, then that really puts a damper on the reunion. Well, if you ever need to vent, or need a shoulder, just give me a yell.

What's he going to Brazil for? If that's not too nosy of me to ask.

[lt-wes-janson.livejournal.com]

Training, for his...job.

[ex-will-port106.livejournal.com]

He must have a very exciting job. Can you at least go down there to visit him? Maybe they're putting him up at a nice place.

[lt-wes-janson.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I could probably head down for a bit to visit him once I get back. Or, I better be able to anyway. Otherwise we'll both probably go nuts!

I bet you would! I can't stand being away from Kevin for the span of a workday, and we haven't even been together that long (12 weeks on Friday if you count when we met, which I do, Kev counts the first time we had sex. But I digress.) so I can't imagine how hard this will be for you guys.

[lt-wes-janson.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we've been together more or less for ummm, about three years in the fall, give or take a month or two.

That's really sweet. Early congrats on the anniversary, then. *grins*

Thanks! *grins*
