Depressing

Just pondered how many shares I’d have to sell to pay for one term’s worth of schooling for my son. Roughly 80,000.

The depressing bit is that when these were ‘new’, the same amount would have raised enough to have bought me a new Ferrari!

Some things in life are truly not very fair!!!

BUT, at least – AT LEAST I was a millionaire once. And I *could* do it again – I’m sure.  But, do you know what, I don’t want to or need to – a very much stress-free and life with Harriet is enough for me … actually, for anyone who might have Harriet for a partner – well – it should,  really should fullfill their dreams.

For the Ghost

First guy:     My wife is an angel.   Second guy:     You're lucky; mine's still alive!

Last Day

Today’s my last day at OUCS – and I’ve a mixture of happy/sad feelings about it.

Happy as it: puts the Charlestoning Ghost partly to rest, sad: because I liked the people -and- the work there. However, selfish-ghost requires selfless-peetm as the cure – so I give it up.

Abstinence required in other places around here too – the selfish-ghost haunts a lot of places that are now out-of-bounds [the college: bar, dining room, events, ... ]
