Shoes II

My cousin has a job! I'm very happy right now and filled with an admiration unceasing. Not only does the position pay fairly well, but it’s located in Calgary, where other members of my family live (although it occurs to me that you can’t really go anywhere around the prairies without being close to at least one set of my relatives). Because his position starts in September I’m going to be even more alone at school than I normally am, but hopefully I’ll manage to find some people to keep me sane (i.e. people outside of the Physics basement).

In other news my new shoes seem to be breaking in to my feet. Either that or my feet are being gibbled by my new shoes. I was going to say that one should never let a decision regarding shoes be influenced by the fact that the salesperson is a cute girl you went to high school with, but apparently that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Biking while carrying my stylish new bag was also a success, making me believe I can keep it.

I guess what I’m trying to say with all of this is that I’m feeling better, not in the my cough is gone and my asthma isn’t bothering me kind of way, but that I’m not so depressed. It helped to identify the trigger and look at it with someone else’s help. The fact that my friends are writing about their very cool trip to England also helps. People here do give a darn about me; I just have to believe it enough to intrude on them.
