"Look Back in Anger." or in understanding
Home today because my legs won't work reliably. I think I know why, in part, put I'll save it for another posting. I still need to post novel pages at NaBloPoMo (click on link above userpic). So, why then am I taking time to post another long-ago journal entry? Waiting, I suppose, while the creative juices recharge.

16 Dec. 1998
Seated at Bagel and Bagel after meeting with Kelly to sign a form from TTC and then fueling Ercilia’s car. I used a filled punch card to a get a cinnamon-raisin bagel with plain cream cheese (my usual). I dropped a dollar in the Rush Hour Club Box to pay for coffee in my TTC travel mug. Yes, I could have paid the refill price, but shorts don’t have pockets and I didn’t want to carry a nickel around.
The TTC staff Christmas party will be today, at the Harrah’s Casino north of Topeka. Judy made sure I was invited, but I declined. I am opposed to gambling, believing this activity doesn’t make us better people. Peggy’s suggestion that I could come along for the free meal and not gamble is a specious one.
As well, I intend to quit TTC due to health reasons. I was still feeling the effects of Monday’s bout with back pain as late as yesterday afternoon. The job, which I throw myself into wholeheartedly, is draining on physical, mental and emotional levels. How can I prepare adequately for comps while carrying such a burden?
