notes

[serene]

Just a few notes before I go put away laundry:

1) Got a temp gig doing data entry for the next two weeks. Good money, full-time, downtown Oakland, starting tomorrow.

2) Scrambling to get some housework and other work done before I start there.

3) There was a bad miscommunication around the part-time job I was sure I was going to start at, and I declined the job. I'll write more about it later.

4) This Sunday, I'm going to a women's open mic in Alameda. If you're a woman and you want to go with me, please do. I'd love some company, and it was a really nice thing last time I went.

5) I'm getting old, which is fine with me, but things hurt that shouldn't, and that's not fine with me. "Health insurance ASAP" is my latest mantra.

6) sogwife had a rough day today, and the stress level around here is higher than I like. I wish I could help, and yet I'm happy that I have come to a place in my growing-up process in which I'm clear that it's not my job to fix everyone's problems, so that I have the energy left for empathy, and sympathy, and any help I can reasonably give.

Good for you! I'm getting there. Really.
