Well. that's done. Just got the phone call I wanted. And I certainly didn't get the answer I wanted. And man am I glad that encounter didn't happen in person. Or I think I'd have broken down and cried. And I know that sounds sad, but I thought that maybe something would work out for me. But instead, I get the shaft. Again. And I know there's people out there who would say that it's entirely his loss and everything, but I feel like I kind of lost too. And I don't like that feeling at all.
