Aug. 5th, 2004 11:29 amworking hard on avoiding my papers but time is starting to run out. AF is at an amusement park today...fun for him. I'm going to hopefully finish taking all my notes and start forming the outline that I'll be using for paper one. I could read and then outline all the articles for paper number 2.
I got an email request for an interview for a PAID part time internship for this fall at a local college. I'm SO excited, I would really like to get this. It will probably be a week from today...and they're hoping that someone will start in 22 days. I can do that! I better start getting ready for school to start...it's the first time I'll have to really purchase most of a whole new wardrobe for the growing AF. Shoes..pants, shirts, etc.
A couple of days ago MJ who attends my church and whom I've always enjoyed indicated that she wants to spend more time with me. She's an artist who grew up in CA. Progressive and funky..independent. My church is 25 miles from my house but it's the closest progressive community I know. I've often kept to myself because I'm so busy (working, school, single parenting and such) it's a time and scheduling factor. I've also realized that I usually have precious little time and am more of an introvert. Most of the time, I weigh the amount of effort, energy and my desire it takes to spend time with someone, this usually ends up with me a little more isolated than I like...but most of the time, I'd rather be alone than with people who just fill my time versus enrich my time. MJ seems to be one of those people. She talked about how she sees me as being positive energy and in the past she has often spent time with older people (she's probably in her late 40's to early 50's...10-15 years older than I) who are currently passing away, or occupied with health issues and are less than positive. She organized a "like minded women" evening next Wednesday and I'm really excited to go....but also a little nervous because I wonder who else will be there...will they appreciate me as much as MJ does? Oh well...good time to take a risk and see who else MJ enjoys.
