After the library...

walked down Vanderbuilt Avenue, smack into the DDOB march, or the end of it, which I had decided not to take part in. Anyway, got into a long discussion with a guy named Jack, a little older than me, about what was going on, and how much we both detested it. He and some of the other marchers were heading towards the Soda Shop a few doors down, but since I had to get home to hear the DOE phone calls, I didn't go with them. I thought about it for a while, why I was not joining, but thought it best to return home. Heard a gazillion messages, but not one that I wanted to take. Then today at Friends, picked up four (actually two halfs, and two fulls) more days of work. So it wasn't really necessary--woke up this morning typical middle of the night thing with anxiety and some physical craziness---better now--had a nice day at Friends (actually a morning) and hallelujah! actually got paid for my past work! Still feeling slightly at odds---I think the hiatus at Friends (seven days actually) was weighing on my mind---after five straight days, felt so at home there---then the last four days without work---anyway, have a lot of work now for the next week or so---should settle in.........
