Offensive Strategy

I've been told that people take advantage of my good nature, and I do realize it. For the most part, I really don't mind it. After all, my life has really been about helping people. That's why I chose to work in healthcare in the first place. There have been certain times that I've actually found the need to fight back against the evils of the world. I had a horrible boss in my last company. He took advantage of my good nature, and was sinister and manipulative. I think I have already mentioned that hell would have to freeze over, thaw out, and then freeze over again before I even considered the thought of working there ever again.

For the last couple of decades, I've had the same kind of drama going on in what's left of my dysfunctional family. However, it's kind of gotten interesting. I was in hiding from my crazy family for a really long time. Well, my cover has been blown, and I've been found, so I guess it's only right to rejoin the drama. A decade ago, I didn't have a way to fight against the evils within my family. You'd think I would be satisfied with the fact that the two people that have caused the most problems in my life are already dead. But, even though they are dead, I'm not ready for closure. If I actually listened to common sense, I would go back into hiding. But I've had enough of that over the past several years. It's back to the fight, and I intend to win this time. See ya.

Things To Come

It's been a hectic week at home. Travel and the day job seem to be getting in the way of everything these days. But I digress. I've been burning the candle at both ends for way too long, and I've really been putting my needs so far down on the list that I think they fell into the aforementioned well in the middle of the tunnel with the light at the end from my last post.

I've often considered shutting down my web site permanently, but I just don't think it's quite time just yet. I started that web site as a way to get vent about all of the pesky little problems that arise when you travel on the job. I still travel for work, though perhaps not quite as much as I used to. I'm thinking that I've finally outgrown the need or desire to be out on the playing field.

I'm a lot more tired than I used to be also. Granted, I've been living a nightmare for the last couple of weeks with some of the stuff going on at home. I'm not doing well right now, but I'll get over it eventually. My young friend James reminded me that age truly is a state of mind. I realize that I'm not eighteen any more, but I'm not dead yet either. I seem to rambling on and on a bit longer than I usually do. So I guess I should go to bed. See ya.

Darkness Falls . . . Down A Well

Someone once told me they felt like they are close to seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. That's a really nice colloquialism. If I may be so bold, I feel the same way -- almost. The only difference is that I'm stuck at the bottom of a hole in the middle of the tunnel in which you might be able to see the light at the end. I'm still slightly overworked, which I really don't mind. Ever since I returned from vacation, I can't help but feel like I'm missing something or maybe I just feel out of place.

I briefly lost my domain name, and got it back a few days ago. It's nice to be back, not that anyone ever reads this stuff. I haven't been able to shake this ominous feeling for the last several weeks. Maybe it's nothing, but I'm not usually wrong about this sort of thing. Only time will tell. See ya.
