whew.

I generally shy away from discussing work on here - in part because it's a knitting blog, in part because there are limits to what I can post *because* of my job, in part because I don't want to bore anyone (most of all myself). But something pretty major happened, and I'd be remiss if I didn't mention it here. The company I work for is up for sale. There's been a lot of upheaval in the newspaper industry, and I guess I've been naive and thinking that everything is insulated for me here in my little bubble. It's mostly felt very surreal. We who worked Wednesday night and put out the paper were aware of it, but I can't imagine how shocked others must have been to see the front page on Thursday. This throws a lot of things into the air, but I'm hoping and praying that our newsroom gets through it with minimal strife (and, of course, that I still have a job when it's all said and done).

And that's all I have to say about that.
