a slow week...

at Friends, only one day of work, however, atleast three this week, and tutoring is on the rise. Alot to handle. Strange evening yesterday, returned from first tutoring session with Brian, a feisty sixth grader having trouble with math. Stopped off at Columbia Pizza, 111 street, and returned home, very tired. Slept for two hours, then read endlessly Adrian LeBlanc's book Random Families. Second time around, was shocked at being drawn into this brutal world, always more troubling because many of the moments take place in a Bronx that as a child I felt safe in. Still haunted by that change...visit there again.....? Woke up feeling what.....frigntened, overwhelmed, as if I had absorbed all the violence in the book....anyway, back at the library, another tutoring session at 1:30, wonder if I will see Khovanchina tonight, really the only time to go, other options.....? well, you know what they are. Great game of trivia Wednesday evening, hope I can make the next one, work on Wednesday, but will give it my best shot...we'll see.
