I'm hitting a wall today.

Last night, after my H went to bed early, a friend of ours called with some disruptive news.
This friend still works for the lab that my H used to work for before being laid off.
This lab is the place where my H hired the woman he ended up having a full blown affair with and drifted into a massive campaign of betrayal - enabled and supported by a small circle of self-serving co-workers.

Well it seems that the lab has decided that they need my H afterall and are now hoping to hire him back.

Neither my H or I are surprised by this turn around, but I am a little surprised that my H has so quickly opened the door to the possiblity.

He claims that the issues of the past are "behind us".

This turn of events comes just days before the official 'dropping-of-the-bomb' day - Jan. 22, 2003.

So...my H is considering returning to 'ELM STREET' .

The echoes are rising and rumbling.

My hands are cold.
