Today was the best day I have had in a long time. The weight lifted off my shoulders feels so nice. I still have a TON of work to do before my 2 weeks are up, not to mention getting all the stuff out of my office (I’ve considered renting a truck… it’s not really that bad, but it’s close).

I wore blue jeans to work today. Because I can. Also, because I won’t be able to in the new job so I am enjoying it while I’ve got it.

I started documenting the system today and realized how much I just… know… about this network. It’s stuff that no one else on the planet knows and its kinda cool. It is also daunting because in 2 weeks I have to dump all that knowledge to paper and I am bound to forget something. I’m one of those people who can’t remember my own name unless it is important that I know it at that moment. When something breaks, the synapses just fire and the information comes back. 5 minutes before that I couldn’t have told you anything about it. This network has been my “baby” for 2.5 years and that’s a long time in a world where machines have a 3 year life cycle.

Anyway, the weight being off my shoulders really lightened up my day. I managed to make it through the day with minimal stress. It has been a good day.

God is good. Life is good.
