well, its been a busy week, but I'm done.

I've met with people in the East Rochester school district for a project.

I've formatted a powerpoint for a group presentation.

I've gotten papers back.

and I do believe I seriously rocked in my counseling session with my client today. I was firing on all cylinders (spelling, anyone?). I helped to create the tension, then really...

Confidence is a good thing to hold onto... it always makes men more attractive if they are confident (in a non-cocky kinda way)

so I'm sitting in Pizza Hut today, waiting for my mom and sister to show up, having ordered already, when I started thinking....

"Can I actually do the job as a school counselor?"

fuck, hate it when I start questioning myself like that. one of my biggest problems has always been confidence.

and its starting to wane now....not good!

thank you one and all for the birthday wishes. it was a relaxing day of me meeting my dad for lunch, followed by some reading, going to dinner with my mom, step-father, sister, and her boyfriend (Applebees), and then back here for cake and ice cream, with some family members (cousin and his family, my "uncle [step-father's brother and only really decent member of his...

well, survived another babysitting adventure. mind you, I think the one who is turning 4 in May told me to die a few times (or something like that). but no accidents this time, so that's a bonus!

pretty much triple teamed the three kids. well, kind of. brought them here, with my mom and step-father. problem is, my mom pretty much sits in a chair...

I still need an ethical diliemna, please leave a message of any that sounds...

I was a Trolley Dude for a year and a half myself. For us it was middle aged women that caused the most grief. They'd dump their trolleys at the side of the car park or leave them in parking spaces then complain should they come shopping and find the trolley bay empty. Our explanation of "Well, if people put their trollies where they were supposed to we wouldn't have to waste our time collecting them from stupid places". Do you get moms leaving shitty nappies the trollies as well? It's all a display of how little people care or think about the people around them. Having a trolley is not a privilege offered by the store but a God given right. They'll take it around the store and leave it at a stupid angle every time they stop. When they leave, they leave it in a stupid place because 'it's not their problem'. Then they'll sod off home thinking that anyone who collects trollies is retarded. There is sooo much more that I could write. ARRR!!!
