morgainaIt's interesting how a wonderful weekend throws the difficulties of the day job into such extreme relief.
My SCA friends are such mentally healthy, fun, honorable people, although we may jokingly call ourselves 'crazy'. Such a difference to the unhappy, self-defeating emotionally disturbed people I work with regularly.
For the umteenth time, I wish I had an effective way to convey to my students that they have the power to stop making themselves so miserable and stop screwing up their own lives.
