It's been a long time since I've done anything spontaneous. I'm way overdue. But today I'm going to go out after work on a last minute impulse. Maybe it's not so impetuous, more like necessary.
Yesterday a co-worker got fired. Someone I liked and thought of as an expert in her field. At first she scared me. She was impatient and terse. After a few months I realized it was just a reflection of her own insecurities and frustration. In the end her personality did her in. Or maybe she wasn't such an expert after all.
I don't think I will ever know for sure. And frankly, I really don't care. We'll have a few drinks and say good-bye and best wishes for a better future. And off she will go into the future leaving us all behind, as it should be.
