Today was started with the intent to give blood, then go to my afternoon therapy appt.
Because I forgot to take my meds last night, I didn't fall asleep until 8 in this morning. I was dressed and out the door 10:30 and got to the Blood Bank at Broad and Girard at 11. I thought I would be out in no time, but that was not the case.
The gist of the day was that things aren't always what they appear. The center was filled with all walks of life, but once I actually spoke to people, they were pretty good natured.
While talking to a guy about my frustration with the work field, he gave me contact info for an employment agency.
I spoke to another guy about why he was there. He was a college student, but was saving to get a taxi drivers' license. Once we were done he had to go to class, but he didn't want to spend money on fare, so he was going to walk; about 10 miles. He was headed in my direction, so I gave him a ride.
I never made it to my appt, but I think I made out better. I met people, helped someone, and was helped myself.
I don't know what tomorrow has in store, but I'm ready to see past the obvious.
