i woke up this morning feeling like shit, as per the nite before, and was dreading walking all the way to work on such a gloomy, cold morning. but as i was walking i realized my mood was steadily improving because despite the crappy weather, it was really nice and quiet and i really do like walking to work because i try and take a different route every tiime so i get to see buildings and such that i wouldn't usually see. so that's fun. and then i got to work and i had fun with ali and the residents and it really gave me a chance to take my mind off of all the shit that's been building up inside it. i don't think i thought about bad things at all during my shift. then i proceeded to stay an hour later at work to talk to josh, this guy i work with, and it was just really really nice to talk to someone i don't really know that well and to just sit and chat about whatever. by the time i left work, i felt like a new person almost. and then i ran into mr. shipley on the way home and chatted with him for a bit about his "baby" and it was nice to talk to him as well. despite the bad weather and the being up early, i've had a really good day so far. just thought i'd share my little "victory" over my recent shitty attitude.
