Beating a Dead Blog
Damn, I'd forgotten this existed, until a friend of mine started reading the old posts and (I guess) didn't notice it was last updated 3 years ago.
When last this blog heard from me, I was starting to pull my ass out of the sling in the personal life department, but my professional life was going down the tubes.
Remember the little blurb about the guy I met playing solitaire online? We're still together. It's good. In a couple of weeks we'll be headed out on a business trip to teach classes.
Also in my last post, I was looking at my job being outsourced. Well, that happened... and a month after that gig closed down, I had a new one. When I tired of that gig and tried to quit, a manager in another department brought me on to do be the department's technology guru. They teamed me with a programmer - who just happens to be the solitaire player.
Oh, the icing on the cake - after four years of treatment: my psychiatrist has decided that I'm not crazy after all. I'm simply too smart for my own good and have zero tolerance for bullshit. THus, I'm being weaned off my medication.
It's strange not walking around in that particular fogbank.
So, now you see why I haven't updated this in three years - I've had nothing to complain about.

and I know what you mean. I miss being across from you as well.
*chuckling* It always felt like setting up the board for a game of chess, or setting up a battlefield for rubber duckies (the rest of the crew). One comment and we'll have chris ringing off. another David. One more Drew. On a good day we could have everyone including Robert bouncing out of their cubes.
You made Xerox for me and dreaded going in on days I knew you weren't going to be there.
I always considered you my best friend and still do.
I'm still working on breaking what ever psychological aversion it is that I have to telephones. I mean really. Why do I have an aversion to phones? Why on earth would I really hate phones and at the same time fear them?
Oh.. yeah.. I used to work in tech support. ROFLMAO
