I'll Be Back

For me there were no tears and no moments for long goodbyes. I suspect this is for two reasons:

1 – I had to leave early in order to get to rehearsal for a play I am working on.
2 – I will be back next week.

Yep. Back already. I’ve been wanting to wrap things up neat and tidy so as to leave my co-workers with everything they need to know about the areas in which I have become the resident expert. I was on track to get a lot of that done but a death in the family put me behind and since work was extremely flexible with my needs, I feel I owe it to them to put in a few more hours to make sure everything is on the up and up.

So, while my official last day is today, my unofficial last day is this coming Thursday. My boss is coming in from out of town again and we’ll cap everything off with a dinner and then the formal goodbyes. I’m sure it will hit home then. In the meantime, there are a few hugs, many words to “Keep in touch,” “Drop by and say hello,” and “I won’t be far behind.”

That feels pretty damn good.
