They're so great
unintentional consequences. there are some readers out there and not everyone you'd expect.
but they can read between the lines and know that i've been. well. they think it's of my own accord.
which is cute. and it's cute that they're so concerned.
see, i also sent out a carefully worded email thanking everyone for being such good coworkers. calculated risk. but didn't feel i could just leave without it. gotta give your people props.
well, not my problem. let the boss tell them.
he's really good at confrentation, from what i've seen. think of all those warnings he gave me.
oh. the fun's just started.
nervous and i've got no ativan
and after i left i did two things.
i sent an email thanking everyone i work with. they really have been tremendous.
and i sent my boss en email asking him to send me a letter explaining why he fired me.
now i'm going to check my email. see if he sent anything.
and i don't think he has, but i'm nervous.

this is hard
yesterday, went in to the boss's to talk. because he didn't tell me what he wanted from me.
which is cool and everything. i just want to finish on a high note.
so i made him tell me.
and i asked what the last day was. he said it should be in my documentation, which i am sure of, but i got the feeling he hadn't even thought of it.
my last day is friday.
i know that leaving is hard under any circumstances. and better pull it off like a bandaid than let it drag on, but this is hard.
going to save the ativan for when i walk in the door.

Keep it going
how often to review.
You know, no critique intended, but he can be pretty repetitive. But I suppose we all are.
Look at your calendar. Look at your lists. When you need to.
Keep the calendar as your hard schedule: things you do then or not at all.
Review? I go twice a week. Then if I miss one, i've got the other. And I recommend doing it before therapy. Gives you fodder for your bitching.
it's all about the preventive strike. Be on top so those around you are not on top of you.
And incedentally, my boss rocks on this point. May you have one.
you know, I had a daytimer as a kid. Yeah, I was that geek.
but they made so much fun of me I stopped. And started doing drugs. Illeagle ones. Ah self-medication. Every one be their own psychiatrist. If onely dope was covered by insurance.
maintence. That's what it's all about.
But you knew that. As everything I say. Which makes this entertainment, I suppose.
Geek porn.
Make it a ritual. Especially you compulsive ones. Not like the hand washing, but daily, if you have to.
take off the calendar that out of date post...just a reminder to myself. Who's the only one reading this.
Busy trap--i like it.
gtd abt prioritizing? How? three:
strategy: where and what will take you further.
Horizons: altitude map.
Values.
vision.
focus & resposability
finish
well folks, thats's all I got right noe. Best
