Something
from 7 years ago when my life changed
Nobel and
Me, or what people say behind your back

Nobel read
his own obituary and was so shocked by what he read that he changed. When you
leave a job people say goodbye or good riddance to bad rubbish. It can be quiet
a shock. I've been deeply shocked and humbled by what one of the late shift
secretaries said to me an hour ago. At least I'm no Nobel.
People also
shake your hand and say keep in touch, then forget who you are once they have
their 2nd drink. People can get sad and weepy, I'll miss you all.
What's the
truth behind all these emotions? I'll find out on Friday when my Life changes
again. 10years ago was the last time I was made redundant. 10 years ago I had
finally met the right one, and sent her back to Shanghai to tell her family all
my bad points, 6 months later she came back to me.
Now 10 years
on, we're married with 2 beautiful girls, and they are in Shanghai as I talk to
you, Summer with the Mother in Law, Me I'm here Home Alone and about to be
redundant. I still dream of getting my 2 books published, or getting a play or
two on the stage, www.michaelgcasey.wordpress.com is where my
"talent" is wheel clamped in Cyber Space. Will some kind soul pay the
"fine" and unleash my writing onto a pubic that loves Big Brother and
Britains Got Talent. While I look for a new job and my CV fights it out with
other CVs for a job, any job will do, to paraphase Joseph and his
Technicoloured Dreamcoat. Perhaps Andrew Lloyd Webber could turn my comedy play
Shoplife into a Musical with the "Hairy Angel" in the lead. Would the
Public like that or would they prefer Dennis Norton in another show.
Who knows or
who cares? But at least I'm NOT Nobel.
