Work reluctance/Inconveniant Smiling
June 23rd 2:20 p.m.

So far, there are only two bad things about today.

1) Linda thinks I'm being a bitch (yeah, I know, I'm not terribly concerned either)

2) I have to leave for work in about 20 minutes.

The latter is definitely a bummer. But after work today, I get to come home, and go to bed, go to work tomorrow, come home, and head off to the tunnel for a lovely evening of dancing with my homies.

ugh though. Sooo much work. Once again, I must revert to my mantra "Money is good."

So, yesterday was great! :-) Gotta love openness. I feel like I have gained insight. Maggie says I'm more insightful than she is. But I think that everyone thinks someone else is more insightful. People, for the most part, don't see themselves at face value. Sometimes they need either a swift kick in the teeth to tell them that they're being awful, or someone wonderful and complimentary to tell them how wonderful they are.

I've also made a comforting observation. Whenever I feel overwhelming emotion, whether it be something awful, wonderful, sad, or disturbing, it comes out in a smile. I can't help it. I smile as a response to anything that I can't express any other way. I've always felt fairly bad about this, because I'm afraid that I will find myself smiling in a moment where I may be seriously offending someone. But I've discovered that other people do this. Well, it seems that they do, although perhaps it's not as involuntary as mine, and they just wanted to lighten the moment. I don't know. What do you think? Am I alone here? Whenever I ask questions, nobody answers me...so if you have an answer that's worth hearing, sign my guestbook, and answer it, ok? That'd be cool.

So...I guess I'm done. I gotta go get ready to slave away for the evil world of retail. (How do people do this their whole lives????)
