Everything about the picnic was a mess (no real directions, getting there late) but it was all forgotten once we got to visit with the baby. The Mina never tires of her. The Daddyman spent the whole time talking to the baby’s adoptive father- going on and on about himself and his plans. But the baby is so happy and well and content. She is just this joy to see and be around. I feel sorry for her mom having to go back to work now that school has started.
Every time the baby sees us – myself, eep, and the mina, she has this immediate recognition thing- like “there you guys are, hi!” with a baby face full of joy. It’s really cool. She did it to the Daddyman too, even though this was the first time he’s seen her since her birth. It’s clear that she’s very aware that we’re family to her. Hopefully that warmth from her will never change.
When I told the baby’s mom that my job turned temp after all, she was very sympathetic and cool. Things are going well with them and she can still afford to pay for my phone (thank god) without me even having to ask I got reassurance.
In regards to my climb up the cliffs of despair,(oh and do look back at the entries for 9-12-03 if you're confused. What a day) I’m just focusing on getting some interviews set up today. But my bad luck didn’t end with learning my job did. Suffice it to say, that I can’t just be served misfortune, but I always get an extra garnish on the side.
But that’s not for today.
