My bad dream turned out to be just that.

WEEK 32

Well, I made it through another week. J commented that I’ve worked EVERY SINGLE DAY of the last pay period. Yet somehow I made I through. Somehow. For some reason there is always something to keep me going – a surprise phone call, an e-mail, a cheque….

One of my Youtube videos got a five-star rating. And T promised to chase away the boogieman (men) if needed.

WEEK 31

An "A-ha" moment. Well, kinda. D, who is one of the nicest people I know, sez her mother gives piano lessons, but not to everyone. There are some kids she refuses to teach, unfortunately, because their parents are such asswipes.

Sooo, I don't have to massage every asswipe who wants a massage. I feel sorry for doctors, or paramedics, or cops who are OBLIGED to help every asswipe who asks for it.

TRYING NOT TO BE TOO UNHAPPY ABOUT IT, OR...DAY 214

It's Friday. Need I say more?
