Well, the thing is, I've been doing interviews, or coming in an hour late (with warning). I've turned down a few spots (two), and am in negotiation with another right now that I might actually take if I can negotiate some specific requests I have.
Thanks all for your input, it's been hell at work this week (month? year?) and I was lacking the right vision for making this choice.
- Here's hoping your boss doesn't suspect something and start snooping through your internet history.gramme
- Lucky me for remembering to clear cache and history every day before leaving.dMullins
- I hope that your boss does not use internal mail and IP tracking software to monitor employees online...utopian
- Clearing your cache won't keep them from remotely viewing your desktop.gramme
- My old peeps either did that, or someone was asked to look over my shoulder when I wouldn't notice.gramme

You can't undo once you quit.

One capper of a note for anyone who cares to read this far:
Never burn bridges. The design industry is small in any city, regardless of size, so you have no idea with whom you'll be working again in the future. Be a professional. Give notice, make the best of it, take a week off after that, and then start your new gig when you get it.

And stay off the freaking Qoob until you put your notice in.

@luckyorphan: Given the fact that most agencies in my area know my boss, and have nothing good to say about him, I'm not very worried about that. I've been told, if you can make it any length of time here, any agency will hire you.
- Still best to take the high road and give 2 weeks.metal_leg_will
- I don't plan on NOT giving two weeks. The point of the thread = should I give longer.dMullins
