Join the cause...

An overwhelming sensation came over me this morning while at my desk: I need to get out there and do something for those who are less fortunate...Every year around the holidays I am always inspired to get out there and do something for those who have nothing and each year time gets away from me and I am unable to commit...So, I have decided that I need to get off my ass and help. I am either going to volunteer to visit with hospice patients a couple of hours a week, or I am going to volunteer with a pediatric cancer foundation...One way or another I am going to open my heart to those who need a little extra emotional sustenance. Thus, if anyone who reads this (if anyone reads this) wants to join in my cause, let me know. It wouldn't be a huge chunk of time out of the week, just a bit...but that little bit of time could mean so much to someone. (**okay, that was my PSA for the week...I will hop off the soap box now)...

I had lunch today at Pei Wei with Luis and Marc and halfway through the meal I realized that I was progressively concentrating my thoughts on work...Now that is just wrong...The whole time I was thinking about what I had to do and what was going on and who was throwing temper tantrums and what kind of disaster things were going to be in when i returned...Sure enough, I come back to work and there is drama...I am finding it harder and harder to separate myself from work and that is the biggest buzz kill...

So, I loathe math...but, my awesome boyfriend has been tutoring me and training me to think in a "left brain" manner. He is such a saint - patiently explaining everything redundantly for me soas I understand, making quizzes and homework for practice, not getting mad at me when I get frustrated...

OC tonight...and after the chaos that has been this week - I am in need of a drink! :) Bring on the beer!!
