Well, this day has arrived quicker then I had really expected. Today was my last day of work at Floodslicer. Its hard to think that the 5 weeks since I handed in my resignation has passed already. Its harder still to believe that the 5 months since I first hatched the idea to leave work to travel has all but been and gone.

I have mixed feelings about it all. Maybe thats because I’m suffering from the worst hangover I’ve had in years, thanks to a healthy dose of beer and shots for my going away drinks last night. But it could also be because I think I’m going to miss people and work there. They were good to me. They helped make Floodslicer probably my favorite place to work so far. However, the future and what it brings definitely outweighs any sadness I have about leaving. I also, at this current point in time, solidly believe that I will never drink again as this hangover is killing me. But realistically, I don’t think it will be long before I’m in the same situation.

Although I am unemployed, things are only going to get busier over the next week. I have flights and removalists to book, boxes to pack, mail to redirect and a million little bits and pieces to do. Its going to be hectic. If I can stick to the idea of doing things sooner rather then later, I may be ok. We will see, I am, after all, a master at procrastination.

I really can’t believe I only have about 2 weeks left before I leave Melbourne for good. I have had it planned for a long time but it somehow never actually felt like it was going to happen. I’ve reached this point where I’ve talked the talk for so long, now I actually have to action this plan I have. Crap.

The whole idea of never going back into the studio hasn’t really sunk in yet I don’t think. Even though I was only there a year and a half, the routine of waking up, getting my coffee, working, lunching, then going for a beer after work will be hard to get over. I’m sure over the next few days I’ll write more on the topic, as, like I said earlier, I’m good at procrastinating. I guess that works in the favor of those of you who are reading.

Which makes me think, is anyone actually reading this?

Finally, I apologise for the disjointed post and its lack of ability to flow and make sense. It reflects how scattered my brain feels at the moment. I endeavor to write more in the near future, so check back soon.
