Just give me this last moment to be sad about leaving my job. I promise this is the last post about it. I never really thought it'd be THIS hard. Seriously. My chest is tight, I'm so freakin emotional. Some of my best friends are here. And I see them EVERY SINGLE DAY. It's going to be hard only seeing them occassionally. And I know some people I'll probably never see again. My husband doesn't understand. He's never been in one place as long as I have. Plus, he's a guy and doesn't make social connections like I do. Damn, it sucks. Where's my xanax? Thank goodness we're having a party at our house tonight. I can drink away my sorrows without worrying about staying safe. Sucks, sucks, sucks.
Take deep breaths. All changes are tough and filled with trepidation. Good luck. And, I have some xanex if you need them.

Oh, I do know of what you speak! Hang in Lori...it's hard, but...your friends will be your friends, no matter where you are and they are always just a phone call or e-mail or blog post away!
Go ahead, be sad...but...new is good...great things await you at your new job...maybe even some great new friends!!
And men? yeah, they won't ever get it...thank goodness you have us to offer support!! :-D
Happy New Year to you and yours...may the 'year of the cow' be a great one for ALL of us!!

I know how hard it is to leave people you care about.. knowing that the future will limit when/how you see them. You should be sad, you should grieve, you are walking away from a large part of your life for many years and are leaving part of yourself there.
Its ok to cry.
