Quite a lot to say today, so I want to get the unpleasant stuff over with as soon as possible.

Cheryl broke up with me on Tuesday. No fault attaches to either side, and there's a lot more regret than there is bitterness - on both sides, as far as I can tell. We're trying to work out how to turn what we had into a solid friendship, and so far it seems to be working.

The work meeting that I attended last week, the one I thought they were going to fire me at, turned out to be a pre-meeting _before_ that one. So I'm back up in the air.

That's about it on the home front.
