Speaking of struggle, yesterday, when I treated myself to my favorite pizza at the local mall--a mall that gained brief notoriety for housing the gym a few of the guys who hijacked the planes on 9/11 worked out at--I watched through the parlor's glass as a little girl completely lost her temper, dramatically threw down her leather jacket and stood belligerent clad in a puffy sleeved white blouse yelling at the top of her lungs at another little girl,and then walked toward the doors.

But I'm having a nice, peaceful day. I got asked to interview for a temp to perm court docket job today. It would be good work doing research for cases on occupational hazard violations by corporations--I wonder if I had put on my resume the organizing work I've done for graduate student unionizing if that would have made me seem more qualified for the job or less--can't put my lesbigay activism work on my resume either. But I start a great new job on Monday, that should involve much less stress than that one, so I took a pass on this interview. This year has wrapped up nicely for me. I'm damn lucky. I'm looking forward to the new year. And now I'm off to struggle with open the champagne bottle.(-;
