Life is so strange (and sometimes wonderful)

Today, four days before the one-year anniversary of The Great Fuck-You, my step-dad was offered a job. A job that pays well enough (although still way less than he made before). A job he actually wants.

We went out to eat tonight to look over the offer (yes I brought my negotiating book).

My step-dad was so happy. My mom was so happy.

I even let them pay for dinner and didn't have an internal struggle or panic attack or anything.*

Even in the midst of difficult things, my dears. Good shit can happen.

*Okay, I had a little internal struggle. I got over it.
