I don't like thinking of titles

yesterday after lunch, I went to the post office, walked to the riverfront (there is a lot of highway noise but it's pretty, and I like watching eople in nice work clothes and running shoes power-walk on their lunch breaks), went to two banks, and went to the library downtown and got a library card. being here has made me realize that I am way too sensitive- two days ago for example, I had a really good day but I almost let a really unpleasant woman's attitude about blocking a parking space ruin it for me. and yesterday, I was a little bummed out by how one client in particular is always grouchy, then I learned that he has a lot of mental problems that he isn't being treated for. I know that I shouldn't take things personally in those kinds of situations! but it's my instant reaction. everyone tells me I'll develop a tougher skin, and I know it's true and it's only a matter of time.

but so far this week has been ten times better than the last two. I'm really looking forward to the rest of the month because within three weeks I'll get to go to D.C. for the anti-war protest, and New York for a graduate fair, and Boston for a JVC New England fundraiser :-)
