temper; sad report; comics; photography school is too cool
i was *so mad* this morning. for the most part i'm usually calm, easygoing, patient and soft-spoken. well yeah, i know sometimes i get irritable and bitchy. but who doesn't? it takes a bit more to truly make me boil over, which is what happened this morning. when i say to back off, people had better listen to me and take it seriously. instead, this individual(who shall remain unidentified) persisted until i felt backed into a corner and verbally lashed out. the person didn't listen and kept talking when i said i was unable to have a certain conversation w/ them. i really regret this all ruined my morning like it did. it was so unnecessary if the person had just taken my warning and not pushed me to the point of being mad enough to hang up the phone (or leave the room). hopefully this was a passing storm. i'd just like to forget about this morning.
i'm very sad right now. i didn't think i'd be in the position of having to write up a death notice. it's a task i knew was coming since i'd received word of this a while back. tomorrow i have to turn in an article and i'm just so sad to be in a position of having to break bad news to people. and it's even sadder when it's someone young whose life got cut short.
but here's some happy news! i heard from my friend peggy. she sent a letter. oh it was so great to hear from her. i really love her (NO, i don't love her like *that*). she's currently enrolled at this cool school located in this awesome location in an intensive 1 yr. program to launch her career in photography. is that too cool or what??? she lives w/ her boyfriend in northampton, mass. just like my ex (my h.s. boyfriend--and my 1st), her boyfriend graduated from MIT. he write and draws comics and has worked on "tick and arthur" and now his own project "runners". check out these photos of them. i love the mark hamill one, along with peg at moe's.
anyway, i just think what peg is doing is too fucking cool. and so now i'm definitely in a better mood after hearing from her.
