When my supervisor asked me if I wanted to go out of town to help out a location that's got a job much bigger than their limited staff can handle, I jumped at the opportunity. It's not a career move. I don't care about my "career". It's what I do to live, not what I live to do. I jumped at the opportunity to just get away for a few days on the company dime. I might have to work 10-12 hours one day, and head back after working the next, but it'll be away from here. It'll be nice to just get away from here. Between the 4 hour drives each way and my down time tomorrow night, maybe I will feel more like myself.
One of the biggest issues that's been facing me the past several months is feeling disconnected from every thing. The whole fiasco that inspired yesterday's post hasn't helped that situation at all.
I want to write more, but I need to get packing.
Thanks to Marie for being my first commenter. Hopefully I'll put some worthwhile stuff up here to keep you (and anyone else that happens to come along) reading.

People don't place a lot of value on the feeling of simply being heard...but it changes everything when you feel validated in what you're feeling. It gives you that sense of connection to others, the world, it reminds your spirit that it's not alone. What a treasure that is to know that you're not alone.
