i think you're right that honesty might not be the best policyhere. probably better to wait a little bit. giving long notice is good too. that is pretty much exactly what i did when i quit the camp, i waited to tell my boss, and then gave long notice. it's a good way to phase out, train someone knew, and solidify things for yourself as you're making the huge change. and not burning any bridges is important too, the more you can make sure they will be okay without you and the new person is fully trained, the better it could be for everyone involved, and you want to have this place as a good reference for the future, just in case.

i cahsed out my 401k after i quit, which i'm sure was nothing in comparison cuz i'd only worked there two and a half years, but it did take a few months to process. i don't know if every company is like that, for the paperwork to go through and for them to send the papers asking what i wanted to do with it (either get a check or put it into a retirement fund rollover thing) and then to send the check took three months. also they withheld some for taxes, and some b/c i wasn't 59 and a half yrs old (lol) but then i didn't have to pay anything more on it when i did my income taxes. it was nice when it arrived though, omg, and just in time, i had no idea how i was paying the next month's rent! anyway that's just some stuff to think about, though i think every company does their 401k differently.

another reason to wait before leaving is that now that you know you want to, you can watch your funds more with the coming paychecks.

anyway, it's awesome!

Awh, man, Chrys! I'm sorry that you can't sleep! Jes is right, camomille does the trick for me, too. It's weird, I couldn't sleep last night either. Funny thing is, I don't feel all that tired today. Of course, I'm sure after the work day, I will be feelin' it.
