One Sided Saga pt. 8

not yet near future Wednesday, December 19, 2001 12:56 AM

i've been told i'm very passionate. i suppose i even belive it, even though i don't much belive what other people tell me about myself, in this case it may just be true. i connect most things to my heart and soul in one way or another, any other way of living just seems kind of empty.

that being said, i was at "our" tanners, briefly this evening. it was like crazy packed, so we all left to find a bar you could actually sit down in. it was a fun night, just laughing and telling stories and what not.

work today was very fun, some days i'm reminded of just how cool my job is. we had a group of special needs grade school kids come in today and i took them back to my favorite part of the building, the alzheimers wing, and we all had a ball. most grade school children kind of clam up around residents but these kids were like crazy lovey, giving hugs and what not, i was moved to the point where i was forced to use words like cute and adorable. then when i would normally be getting off work i took a van load full of residents to see christmas lights. it's a fun thing for them to do but i'm seriously under compensated for that amount of responsibility. some days i'm just shocked at the amount of trust the center has in me. i have no real qualifications, a horrible driving record and no medical training...lets send him out to drive a huge van full of people with medical conditions!

i used to have idols, rockstars and things of that nature, certain teachers and my father i suppose. now though i wouldn't use the word idol. i respect a lot of people, but idolatry just doesn't feel right to me. y tu?

would it be out of order for me to call you sometime?
