Wrong Side of the Bed

Today was awful. Despite the sunny, blue skies that lasted until after 7 pm. Every minute of today has been a burden.

I tried to figure out why. Perhaps it was the realistic conversation I had with Simon on marriage and relationships and the uselessness of it all. Perhaps it was talking to Emily and Maddie for an hour and longing for Arizona more than I can even express. Perhaps it is the fact that I've not been able to run for 2 1/2 weeks because of this awful cold I've had. Or it could be the retarded class I was forced to be in today, and every Thursday, for that matter.

Three things made today livable. First, Garien stopped by and talked to me while I was working the reference desk for an hour. It was wonderful. Second, while working, I was able to help 2 people find the resources they desparately needed. And the last thing was a spontaneous trip to Marsh with Elaine. Thank you so much, dear. I needed that right then.

God bless those people.
