Right now, I am feeling...

relieved because the Mayor Menino event I was organizing is finally over.

frustrated because I keep realizing all the things I should be getting done but don't have the time or energy to.

disappointed with myself because I am doing a bad job of keeping in touch with family, connecting with friends, and reaching out to strangers.

overwhelmed by the amount of work I have to complete by tomorrow.

happy to have missed the fire drill in my building, and thus avoided going back into the cold night air.

excited for the weekend and the chance to recharge.

unsure about my new internship at Catholic Charities.

annoyed by people around me who don't seem to care about the same things I do. I know that's not true, I know that I am surrounded by mostly good, thoughtful people, but I feel alienated when my preference for poetry and pointless conversation over political figures and philosophical discussions is regarded as foolish. I know I'm not foolish, why can't you see that?

tired.
