The Good News! Following up on hearing about my upcoming sabbatical and a great trip to Florida, one of my government colleagues told me yesterday that he's staying at Morehead State next year rather than accepting an offer from Eastern Kentucky. That was really good news. With Greg Goldey's death and Noelle N'Diaye's arrest, we had already lost two out of the six people in our group. Losing another person would have been tough.
My Reaction. Mostly I just relaxed and went to sleep. Despite the two week break, I'm still operating at a heavy sleep deficit and the prospect of losing another colleague weighed heavily on me. I was like one of the murderers that the cop talked about in The Usual Suspects. Hearing the good news allowed me to calm down, realize how much I needed some extra sleep, and go to bed. Finally, I got some good rest.

What makes you think you're out of the woods when it comes to losing people?
You're right. I could always get a good offer someplace.
Unlikely. Who would want you?
