Devastated

Sometimes bad things do happen to good people.

I am crushed for my poor husband today.

It's a long and complicated situation, but the short version is that he got fucked out of an opportunity that he NEEDED to have in order for his career to continue on his chosen path. This happened not due to who he is or what he does, but was a result of a couple of people dropping their respective balls and making arbitrary choices unrelated to my husband's impeccable work history.

I am so ANGRY at the Coast Guard, and the few people involved in this mess. My husband is a man of very few words and even less emotion. I want to scream and rail at this situation. I want to fix it for him. I want someone to APOLOGIZE to him. I want the look of resignation to leave his eyes.

It is done.

It cannot be fixed.

We have to live with this.

It isn't fair. Not in the least. He deserves better.
