I thought a threesome with Ben and Jerry (and some chocolate) plus a good night's sleep might make the election results a bit more bearable.

It didn't work.

How many days til 2004?

I will be in my office for a total of about an hour and a half today.

Two groups, plus an hour of giving HIV test results, plus travel time.

Schedule looks something like this...

Arrive
Get asked if you can go do results even though not scheduled
agree to do results
make phone call, answer email
eat lunch/post to lj
pack bag to teach std 101
depart for site where results are given
give results
travel further west to where group is.
Give std 101 group
travel back to office for 15 or so minutes
travel to site of second group
substance abuse 2 presentation
check evaluations on substance abuse counselor after group
home.

The boss-lady said something to me about doing fewer Rap it Up programs (the title of the group I do) and doing something else. I'm wondering what it is, but it's probably a good thing to be asked to do it, even if the task sucks.

If yesterday was sexual assault day, today was STD day.

Yesterday's HIV results included a cluster of people who had all been sexually assaulted. Today included a cluster of people all of whom had been diagnosed with an STD.

I got asked, several times, "How could you do this?" People wondered how I could sit there and give people HIV results.

I don't have an answer. Practice, maybe?
