RE: My One And Only Successful Foray Into Business: How It Began
but there would seem to be decisions made when we would wrap up in the evening that would be unmade the next morning.
That does sound like the wife intervening and he was probably too embarrassed to say it. Tough spot he was in too I'm assuming, and I would also think that he has some baggage from it as well. If he was the kind of friend that you described, I can't imagine any of it was easy for him either.
Damn wives. They get in the way some times :)
I think if you spill it all out here though, it will probably "go away". I always feel like when you write it all down, it's just out of your system.
Yep. Nice nice teaser. You and headchange outta get together :)
I definitely got the conflicted vibe from him. There was so much more that could have been said that wasn't. You don't always clam up because you want to. You do it out of loyalty to someone else. Anyway, as I said, I don't know what went on at home. I also know he genuinely thought he was going to drag me down with him. There was something about him and success that didn't quite jive. Like he was more afraid of it than failure. I don't know. Something like that.
It may very well help it to go away. I haven't really written it before, though I've told some of it, but mostly to my wife. So, maybe it's time for it to all go. And of course, this is just my side, with memory fading and not trying to get into most of the gory details, or highlighting all the good times, for that matter.
That's interesting. Some people are like that. It's easier to quit, then it is to succeed or fail.
Sounds like it to me :) I'm looking forward to it, whenever it comes out.
