thankful, pt. 2.
One - I’m thankful for Ursula. Coming into a new job is never easy for me. Having Ursula train me was divine intervention. She knows her stuff and made sure I know mine. Not just about the everyday functions, but the politics. She is genuine, smart and the hardest worker I know. Plus she always smells good.
Two - I’m thankful for Georgia Southern. It led me completely astray from rational thought/action in my personal life, but gave me at least a base of knowledge sturdy enough to build on.
Three - I’m thankful for Tori Amos. Seriously. I would not be half as awesome had I never discovered her.
Four - I’m thankful for MARTA. I never use it anymore, but when I was dating Eric, it was a big part of my life. We spent hours riding trains and buses, holding hands, kissing, cuddling, talking, laughing. No, Eric and I were not meant to be. But I cherish those memories.
Five - I’m thankful for my counselor from GRN, David. He’s just amazing. I summed up our sessions once, “I’m gonna go in there and whine for half an hour. He’s gonna say one, maybe two sentences. I’ll spend the rest of the hour crying and wondering why I hadn’t thought of that.”
