New Job Happy Dance

It's true: after being unemployed for almost six weeks, I have accepted a job offer!

I'll be working in downtown Toledo, on the 12th floor of a corporate office building across from Promenade Park. I will also be making more than twice what I made in my previous job: an increase in salary of 114%, to be exact. Aaron and I will be on equal financial footing — actually, I'll be making just a little more than he makes, to tell the truth.

The main thing, though, is that I'll be working in the Information Services department, in Data Warehousing. The change of industry has to be the biggest benefit of this entire severance situation.

My start date is one week from today, at which time I get to report to Orientation at 8:30am. On Aaron's birthday. Which he requested off from work. But it's all good, since we'll get to go to dinner together on his birthday. Yay!

So, when's a good time for the Diana Got A Job Party that I promised you all...? I'm thinking Saturday the 17th, evening? Who's in?
