Fairly good. Have a couple appointments with the dentist, and the warehouse I work at has been dropping employees like flies. (We get to walk them out... *sigh*)

Ugh. That can't be any fun at all.

I'm suddenly a little worried, looking at the economic news. My new job comes with certain vulnerabilities in that I'm far from a direct contributor to the corporate bottom line (unlike, say, back when I wrote software), and I could be fairly easily cut in bad times. The only good side to it is that my name is extremely well known in this industry and the competition (the biggest of which are not American companies) would probably snatch me up in a hurry.

No, not fun at all.
But when one certain manager got caught in flagrant dilecto on camera with someone not his wife, it kinda is an unavoidable side effect.

Then you'll be fine.

I'm pretty well known in my industry too, but I have no idea what they think of me.

Yeah, but then you might have to relocate to a fjord, with pines, and all kinds of soggy weather and ...

Never mind.
