So everyday is groundhog day. Same old shit. Same food. Same rountine. Same stupid stuff. Same annoying rules. Same mundane songs on the radio. Same mind-numbing commericals on the TV. Same retarded people. Everything is redundant and you wonder when are you going to crawl out of this hole.
Am I ever going to get my point across? Will common sense finally seep into these mofo's heads? Is my food going to taste good today? How many days do I have left? What news does my Horoscope bring today? What does beer taste like?
Then finally the new crew comes in. And there IS a light at the end of the tunnel. And something that I never expect to happen. I get a tug on my heart and OH My God! I'm gonna miss this place. WTF?! I can't stand this place. I can't stand my supervisors hideous cackle. I can't stand exceedingly sarcastic Barnacle Bill's comments. I can't stand the constant corrections of Anal Adams. Loud mouth Carter has made a place into my heart? I can't stand how time consuming my job was. What is wrong with me? This place has crawled under my skin and grown on me.
The struggles and frustrations I experienced has helped me to grow, and now I see the blessing incognito. And I can't help to think how fucked up life is. But I can trully appreciate it in all it's glory. It is amazing. It really is. I don't want to go through it again but I wouldn't change any of it. As much as it has affected me, as much as I might look back and reminisce, I am so ready to close this chapter of my life. I'm ready to move on to the next adventure. I'm ready for a drink!

It sounds like you got something that most people want, many people need, but few get. A universal start over. They say that all of us, at one time or another, lose our way. You had the opportunity not only to take the needle off of the record, but to gather yourself and your funds, and take time to figure out where on the record you are going to put back that needle.
They also say that people cannot appreciate something good without having something bad with which to compare it. Not only do you have your second chance, you have the perspective to make something out of it.
Take care and come home.
Hell ya you need a drink. Come home soon!
