Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self. - Cyril Connolly

Black Wednesday
I feel like the Grim Reaper. I haven't had a decent night's sleep since Saturday.
Actually, I feel like I just took one of my favorite pets to the vet to be put down. The poor thing never saw it coming.
I had to lay two people off today as part of budget cuts for the upcoming fiscal year which starts July 1. Call them in my office, shut the door and tell them to clean out their desks.
"Sucks" doesn't begin to cover it. I have to say that I had one of the most compassionate reps from HR with me that I could have asked for when I delivered the death blow. She was really helpful in a tough situation.
Tonight is probably a good night to hit the driving range.
