OUT WITH THE OLD

I’m starting a new job tomorrow, and a friend asked me three questions about how I was feeling about this seemingly huge step. She asked: 1.       A. Are you excited about the job? 2.       B. What is it going to cost you? 3.      C. Do you know your boundary lines for the job?

So let me give you first a background about why I'm writing about this job. For the past 10 years, I have been somewhat idle as pertains work.

There was heavy traffic today, I was feeling claustrophobic, I'd had a terrible day and I needed to lie down in my room, on my bed. Alone. ‘Babe, are you even listening to me?’ Chioma asked. When she realized I was ignoring her she turned up the volume of the music; she couldn’t be bothered with me. I looked out the window into the traffic, watching people in other cars and imagining what was going on in their lives. My gaze fell on a very yellow and really beautiful woman driving a black Hummer and looking very confused. I decided to start there.                                  ******* Lana was determined not to cry. She tried changing stations to find a song that would lift her mood. If only this blasted traffic would just move so that she could get home. She fou
