easy, breezy

Do you ever have the nagging feeling that you're just selling yourself short?

I do.

Yesterday was lunch with an old friend. He's back in town, working again at the place where we first met (The alt.weekly) and loving it. He's been sober for a year and looks really great, younger even.

And the conversation was good and easy but I left feeling like something was slightly amiss, wrong even.

And, of course, because I like to beat myself up like that, I pinned the blame on me.

But really - is this where I wanted to be - 12 years ago when we first met? Is this what he thought I would do?

She's talented, he said of one of his new co-workers. She reminds me of you, but you're better.

But am I? Working here for the daily? Writing 40 inches of easy, breezy copy?

I just don't know anymore.
