Desperately Seeking Annette
Leap and a net will appear.
Today I leaped [leapt? -- nah...].
I have been in Florida long enough. I moved here for the job. The job has been getting increasingly frustrating and decreasingly fulfilling. It’s no longer enough to keep me here. And my family has wanted me to return to Kentucky ever since I left. So today I turned in my resignation.
Given the current economy you might well think I must be crazy to become voluntarily unemployed. [As if you needed another reason to think I'm crazy.] That’s right, not only have I quit, I don’t yet have another job lined up. And I’ll have to sell my house down here. And… and… and… there is just so much more that I am overwhelmed.
Still, scary as it is, it feels right.

P.S. For you sticklers [like YOU, you know] I know the quote I used at the top is usually stated, “Leap and the net will appear.” But that totally would have screwed the pun I wanted to use in the title. And my puns are often more important than total accuracy in quotations.
