My current job affords me long hours of computer access some nights, which makes me kind of giddy. It's overnight awake support at L'Arche, so when everybody sleeps through the night it consists of waking people for washroom breaks, light housework, and one person's morning routine from 6 to 7 am. Crises can and have already happened but there's also a lot of potential time to think and read and make fudge for when people wake up. It's a temporary position but full-time temporary and I have been earning such a woefully inadequate income for so long that I am extremely grateful for this fact right now. Yeah, basic needs met? Life is better than average. The fact that my job can be enjoyable and contain moments of such intense humanity and being rightinthemoment with people is an incredible bonus.
Anyhow, my point is that I've been doing a shameful amount of Facebooking and it seems like a good opportunity to just archive it all here and utilize what I perceive as a more anonymous forum to spew my opinions instead from now on since I clearly tend to do that all over the place when given a keyboard, solitude, and time. I'm so bad at the necessary FB soundbite and LJ is tailor-made to rambling, so here I find myself. I'm sure others are familiar with the built-up anxious state when it's been so long that posting is like Breaking The Silence. But this is spring and in the spirit of Manning Up I go at it with the mantra of David Sedaris' brother: "Certain motherfuckers think they can fuck with my shit, but you can't kill the Rooster. You might can fuck him up sometimes, but, bitch, nobody kills the motherfucking Rooster. You know what I'm saying?" You're GD right I do.
