Me vs Them

We/I fired our singer. I called her Monday and explained the situation to her. To my surprise, she was understanding.

Yesterday, I got a postcard from her assuring me that she understood why we had to let her go and thanked me again for the time she had in the band.

I also quit smoking and I haven’t smoked in two weeks, now. Not the occasional cigarette, not the “I can smoke when I’m not at home” policy – just a clean break. This does provide some extra stress but I feel better, I taste better, I smell better. It also means I’m more irritable and less likely to compromise.

So when I make arrangements for a temporary singer and someone starts second-guessing the arrangement that I made, I am no longer compromising. And since I’m somewhat convinced that I am part of the problem, I’m seriously considering removing part of the problem.

I don’t feel elated. However, I’m convinced that this is what I have to do if I don’t want to go yelling at people. Which I don’t.
