Famous Final Scene

So this has been running through my head all weekend as I think of my last week of work.

Words and music by bob seger

Think in terms of bridges burned
Think of seasons that must end
See the rivers rise and fall
They will rise and fall again
Everything must have an end
Like an ocean to a shore
Like a river to a stream
Like a river to a stream
Its the famous final scene
And how you tried to make it work
Did you really think it could
How you tried to make it last
Did you really think it would
Like a guest who stayed too long
Now its finally time to leave
Yes, its finally time to leave
Take it calmly and serene
Its the famous final scene
Its been coming on so long
You were just the last to know
Its been a long time since youve smiled
Seems like oh so long ago
Now the stage has all been set
And the nights are growing cold
Soon the winter will be here
And theres no one warm to hold
Now the lines have all been read
And you knew them all by heart
Now you move toward the door
Here it comes the hardest part
Try the handle of the road
Feeling different feeling strange
This can never be arranged
As the light fades from the screen
From the famous final scene

Creepy, huh? But I kinda look at this job like a bad relationship that's finally ending. I've had it for over 9 years... and the last 2 years have been torture. I think next Monday is going to be weird, but then I leave for Florida on Tuesday. So really when I return on 2/14, things will be really strange. To be home for 2 weeks? Hasn't happened since I was 15.

Stay tuned for the list of things I hope to accomplish on my work hiatus...

So what is my plan? I don't really have one. I don't want to work in an office, or in retail. I have an idea for a small business that I hope I can pull off. But if I can't? I guess I'll figure something out. But after Friday... I'M UNEMPLOYED! scary!
