Road to the Number After 29

In about 1 week I will officially be that number that shall not be named (the one that starts with 3 and ends with 0...yuck!) While I'm not officially looking forward to being that number in the least, I have to admit that the 29th year wasn't so bad.  Some pretty nice things happened.  Nothing astronomical like weddings, or babies, or lottery winnings but it definitely had some high points.  The first of which was finding this new job. 

I didn't expect to like it as much as I do at all.  After all, it's not traveling around the world writing and eating (which just happens to be the dream job) and it  may have halted the move to London plans for a bit but it's wonderful in its own way.  The people are fantastic!  I have a hard time talking to new people and making small talk.  I'm terrible at it and have never really learned that skill.  But in less than  3 months I have friends and an actual clique (uncoolest word ever but the best I can think of). 

The management is like nothing I've ever had before.  I'm not sure if this is everyone or just my boss but he's perfectly understanding and a wonderful person.  Getting to see the epitome of what a terrible boss is makes this experience that much sweeter.  Even the work is becoming slightly more interesting.  It's still work afterall so I'm not saying I'm busting at the gut each morning when the alarm goes off, but knowing that I'll be surrounded by fabulous people, in an easy-going and fun environment, makes it a little easier not to roll right over and go back to sleep.
