Kick in the pants

It's all good. My closest colleague here at work, and the closest I've come to making a work friend in a long time, is likely going to leave the company. He asked me to serve as a reference for him for a job, and I did.

I really like working with him. It'll suck not to have him around, which gives me all the more reason to want to move on, myself. And that's fine.

Though my thought for now is I should finish out the divorce stuff first, then switch jobs.

I spoke with the mediation office today. Turns out they only handle divisions of goods, not support (which is the issue of contention). That's another office, which I shall contact. I think I've earned my right to have one piece of major life change at a time.
