Hard to Breathe

the ac at the office has been out. It's hot. It's gross. there was no need to use the restroom even after 3 back to back glasses of water. clothes cling. raising my arms makes me nervous. the coolest place in the office is in the vault. it is also the mustiest place.the coolest place in the building is the restroom. it is also the stinkiest. customers who smell funny smell stronger in this heat. it is not funny. i don't get how something can smell funny. inhale and then laugh? i've never experienced that. oh but if you want someone to smell something don't say it smells bad and then shove it towards them. instead tell them not to smell it and they will willingly smell for themselves.

jocelyn decided we could never be vegetarians. we would give up veggies before meat.
jocelyn: yeah, like meatatarians!
me: or carnivores.

i've been learning lately that prayer is not wish list for stuff. God is not santa clause. it's hard praying for what's best for you especially when "what's best" isn't what you want. i should be happy with the lack of an answer from "that guy" because i prayed for whatever was best. best doesn't feel good.

"I used your lunch bag everyday today"- jocelyn.

i feel for you and yes you're right, prayers aren't wish lists. they shouldn't be anyway. did you transfer to the new branch already?
