I still haven't unwound all they way, but I'm getting there.
Things are not as bad as they seemed on Monday. I got an email from Charlie saying that I would be paid until December 31st. I appreciate this gesture very much.
I would like to emphasize this point: my blog is my outlet for my frustrations in life! This is my verbal punching bag - and I don't hold any punches here. If I'm angry, I express it here. Frustrated, you'll see it here. If I'm happy, you might see it here. You get the picture. Often I'll write an entry flaming someone and forgive them the next day - of course I don't always come back to the topic and mention in these pages. If by chance you find yourself here, don't worry about it. I was probably just having a bad day and you stepped into it and become the visual realization of my frustrations. It seems that I've mentioned Greg a lot in the last few entries. Greg is like a big brother to me. Everything that I learned about security I learned from him. I hold a deep respect for his abilities - sometimes even awe!! Any personality conflicts I have had with him recently are more a reflection of my own character's shortcomings than any reflection on him as a person or professional. I don't know many people as talented, capable, and driven as Greg... I just wished I could have kept up with him *grin* but I couldn't, and it seems I broke something of my spirit trying. Greg, best of luck, I hope you won't hold these last few weeks against me (very long)... one day down the road it would be nice to catch up and see what your doing and what great exploits you've managed!
