Last week I started a new job as social media coordinator for a company here in Chicago. Yay! New job! I had a couple options in front of me, but really feel this was the route to go. So far it’s been really great; I have a new boss I feel I’ll learn a lot from and who expects a lot from me, some great co-workers and there is just lots of potential all over the place.

Right now I’m working on adjusting to a new routine, learning all about my new company and basically just getting settled in a whole new environment. It’s a big change when you compare it to my work in the past few years. There are definitely challenges and I feel this job is really going to push me on a different level that I have been before, but I have to say I’m pretty excited about all of it. Even the new job nerves that have been hanging around lately. Hopefully those will be gone soon though!

As for the other things:

1) Katelin and I have been exchanging the most ridiculous emails and texts lately. They’ve been the highlight of my day every day because apparently we’re now making this an every day thing. #ovariesinsync

2) I am in desperate need of a haircut. My hair is stupidly long and you know that’s saying a lot coming from me. Someone slap me if I ever go this long between cuts again.

3) Today while walking back to the train station I saw a dude in a suit carrying a mounted wild boar’s head down the street. Everyone was all, no big deal, just a huge boar’s head going down Madison. It was kind of amazing.

4) My sleep schedule has had a rude awakening. No more night owl ways for this girl and that bums me out. I also need to work on this morning person thing so I don’t murder people on the train.

And lastly,

5) Mornings are dumb.
