where have you been.....

cityboy; well, a lot has happened: six days of work, a better understanding of my place at the school-a decent monetary outlook---two weeks (atleast) of rest with no options for other work.
Just finished Wendy Wasserstien biography----moved, saddened, but wonder if there would have been any place for me in her world. Saw her a few times at plays, she never seemed distant, but I never said hello. She lived very much in a world of high achievement and "success". And you, Cityboy? Interesting how all the trips you made around the city, the few times you visited projects to tutor, the harshness that you challenged yourself to endure as a sub---all of this seems negated by the "achievement" of Wendy and her peers. But wasn't that what was supposed to happen? And the "gut oriented" work that you do, why does that make you "inferior?" Maybe Wendy would have admired me and the work that I chose; maybe I would have been totally dismissable to her. Can't say.
Anyway, let's get on (or try) to get on with the rest of it. Meeting Carolyn for a one man show tonight---after that.....?
