Reading this blog I'm somewhat disturbed to see how little life has changed for me. I'm sitting in a camp room that is almost identical to the one that I originally settled myself into almost three years ago. True things have changed for the better in just about every way since then, I'm now the boss of my department, I'm making almost double what I was, I've been with my present company for just about two years, I have the trust and respect of my Managers, I've paid off my debts and have/had lots of savings (thanks economic crisis).

Yeah, the future looks, if not bright, tolerable. True I was lied to by my company to get me to come to my current location but they gave me what they thought an insurmountable task and I've completed it in less than 4 days. They can't believe how quick I turned this struggling department around. Hell even I'm a little shocked. So this will be good for my career in the long run. In the short term I'll satisfy myself with the knowledge that it'll be good for my bank account.

In exactly one weeks time I'll be jetting off to Mexico for J's wedding! While I've been bitching and moaning about this trip forever (going alone to another wedding, especially one where I was financially penalized for going alone) I'm actually starting to look forward to it now. I think it's more the prospect of laying around in the sun drinking for a week straight than anything that's making me happy.

I'm glad that I decided to come here tonight and reflect a bit. I do leave disturbed at how much things have stayed the same though...
