yellowducky's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This week in brief.... It's been a hard week. Between everything going on with my family, with one of my dear friends, and with the shelter, it's been pretty bleak. I feel like I just want to go hibernate for awhile. Yesterday I had a great surprise in the mail, though. A friend, who knew I was having a hard time but didn't really know what was going on, sent me an anonymous card. I figured out who sent it though. What a wonderfully thoughtful gesture. It made my day. I hate when people I love are going through hard things that I can't help with. I hate how other people's actions can have such debilitating effect on someone. My co-workers are being great. Even if they don't know what I'm going through, they are supportive. I did discover the perfect way to get a guy to not come over if you don't want to see him: Guy: "How ya doin'" ME: "I've had better weeks. I'm in a bad mood." Guy: "Really?" ME: "Yeah." Guy: "You don't sound like you're in a bad mood." ME: "That's because I'm a good actress. Believe me, I'm in a bad mood." Guy: "Really?" ME: "Uh huh. You want to come over?" Guy: (silence) "Uh, I actually have something to do. I'll see you next week." ME: (smiling) "Ok." (I continue furiously scrubbing the kitchen in order to work out my hostile feelings) Fascinating, isn't it? 1:09 p.m. - November 17, 2001 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
