Jinx- to bring bad luck to; place a jinx on.
This previous Monday started off as a day that was too good to be true. We
woke early enough to slip out and away to embark on the maiden voyage of my
newly purchased but already well loved kayak. I have dubbed thee "Kohaku",
the name of a river spirit in the movie "spirited away".
As I
returned from our lovely and successful voyage I uploaded photos and uttered
the Jinxing words "Time to redefine 'a case of the Mondays' :)" to
accompany them. Upon checking my phone I noticed a missed call and a message
from an unfamiliar number. It was my boss which is very unusual; I have never
been called at home before. Even more unusual was this meeting that had been
hastily planned (notices were sent the day before). It was request all
employees attend even those on leave or their day off. I had a very bad feeling
about this due to the urgency of this meeting. I was correct. The company
advised us that come December 1st our roles would be relocated to other
states. There were options to move, apply for other positions, or say so long
and thanks for all the fish. I want to try something new. I want to search my
soul. Even though the light at the end of this tunnel
is actually a
train, I think I’ll hop aboard and see where it takes me. Already there has
been talk of some life changing, well, er, changes. Wish me luck and stay tuned...
