It is with considerable gladness and a huge sigh of relief that I can finally report that eight months after being job eliminated from MTV News Online, I have finally secured a new job. After months of frustrating near-misses, anxious fretting and having the "I Want A Job" jingle from Alex Cox's abortive "Sid & Nancy" running on a non-stop loop in my head, I suddenly found myself having to choose between options. While this is assuredly a pleasant sort of problem, it was still a difficult decision to make. I am very grateful for all the words of encouragement and counsel I've fielded in the last several months, as it has not been the most relaxing of chapters.
At the end of the day, while it was an immeasurably stressful period, I've been able to spend an inordinate amount of time with my children, which is a luxury most dads don't get to entertain. I'm very eager to get started with my new situation, but I know I'll miss the quality time with Charlotte and Oliver very much.
Onward and upward!
