Internet - you will NEVER believe what has happened to me in the last 2 days! I just quit my job of 8 1/2 years to go to a new place. How the hell does that happen?
I am leaving behind me a cushy life where I came and went whenever I felt like it, wore pretty much whatever I wanted and did whatever I pretty much damned will pleased(which equated to me blogging, commenting and doing a lot on my Flickr account all from the comfort of my desk).
Now I am going to a place where I have to perform, meet and exceed expectations and actually work for a living. Also, my commute goes from nothing to everything - so I will be come one of THOSE people - a COMMUTER! THE HELL! What am I thinking?
Oh yeah - the thing that made me jump up and down and scream in a Horshack kind of way - Oh! Oh! Oh!Oh!Oh! - was the cool stuff that I get to work on - like the 2010 Olympics. When they were saying stuff like horrible commute, never see your husband, work for free all I heard in my ears was "WORK ON THE OLYMPICS! WORK ON THE OLYMPICS!". You can see my attention span is still functioning at its ever lovin best!
Internet, please don't think I don't love you anymore if I don't talk to you as much because I do. Just remember it is not safe for me to comment and drive at the same time.

congrats!
From one commuter to another: i tend to write my blog stuff in my head while I'm driving.
(of course I forget mostly everything by the time I get to work)
and I'd like to do the opposite of what you just did: find the job that close to home, where I DO see my husband, and don't work until 2am!
Yeah yeah, Olympics schmolympics! You will miss your slacking days and your very amusing colleagues (that would be moi.) I will be calling you at 7:00 am when you are already on the highway and I am just rolling out of bed and I WILL LAUGH AT YOU!!!
Congrats on the new gig! Sounds fantastic!
WOW!! That is great news and very exciting!
I wish I could be you! How cool is it to work on the Olympics?!? SO COOL!
