    4 day weekend! Company is closed today for Good Friday (Easter is on Sunday). And then I’m taking Monday off because why not?

    My work is doing an NCAA college basketball bracket tournament. I’m currently No. 2, but there’s a good chance I can reclaim that top spot again. As long as I’m top 3, I get a little bit of prize money. All off of 10min of picking my bracket! …and admittedly knowing a little bit about college basketball.

    With my job offer – that I received 9 months ago – they finally got around to scheduling my drug test, which I did on Wednesday. Still waiting to hear back about my background check stuff. It’s with the government and requires a clearance, so it’s taking forever. I did check in with my contacts last week; all they said was that things are still under review. I will say it’s very hard at times to keep motivated in my current job for this long. At least my current employer is aware of this job offer and also understanding and supportive, so that takes some pressure off of me. Not everyone knows, but I’m not having to hide it from the people who need to know (which I did for almost 6mo). Still, it’s still a weird limbo to be in.

    Otherwise, it’s still pretty chill.
