Well, not really in my mind. I'm really down in South Carolina. I saw my ex-asshole at the airport when I landed on Saturday. He has a goatee now, bwahaha he looks like a bigger douchebag than before. But whatever. He was like O.O when he saw me. I pretty much ran outside and threw my stuff in my mom's car and told her to gun it!
I've been in my office's headquarters all week, and today was the first day of the contract summit I flew in for. I pretty much hate my current boss, who is out on maternity leave, and I don't really like her fill-in either. The culture in our Boston office sucks, where as the culture in our Carolina office is great. There is a lot of hostility in the Boston office, because they used to be a different company, but were purchased by my company in 2007.
Today, a structural reorganization within the entire company (and all of the smaller companies we've acquired over the last several years), and it's long overdue. It's a great thing, and I'm thrilled. My roll is to serve as a liason between the account managers, clients, and the legal department. Today, I realized there were two opportunities for me to move out of my current department, without really switching roles.
1) The legal department wants to create a role almost identical to mine, but who reports to my former boss, VP of Core Sales, whom I *adore.* If he's open to a remote position, and I think for this, he might be, then it could be mine.
2) The General Counsel tossed out the idea of the liasons reporting to his team. I'd also be happy with that. I've found I'm generally much happier reporting to men than women (funny, since I have a female Dominant, and want no other).
Anyway, so I'm pretty excited at the prospect of being treated with respect again. I'm really praying for the best. Even if I have to continue commuting to the Boston office, I'd be fine with that. I'd definitely prefer working out of my home office, but I just want to work for someone who isn't a douchebag and respects me and my work.
It's been a great trip, I'm having a great time seeing old coworkers, my family, and friends. I plan to have birthday cake with my family on Thursday, and I've been so scared of my stomach rejecting the sugar after 7 weeks of none. So last night, I had an ice cream cone from Dairy Queen. My FAVORITE. It was orgasmic. It didn't upset my stomach too badly, but I sure felt terrible and guilty after. I don't think I've gained any weight while I've been here, but I can't be sure, and I only want to weigh using my own scale. So after my birthday cake on Thursday, I'm going hardcore back on the induction phase. I will have only broken the rules twice, technically. And hopefully it'll turn out to be true that the shock to my system will give me a little jump start and I'll drop weight a little faster than before. We'll see.
Cheers from South Carolina!
