Little Things

There are people in this world who are improving their communities every day in small ways that most others will never know about. Tonight I had an orientation for United Through Reading, and I am so humbled to soon be working with such empathetic, principled people. I hope that once I am presenting childhood literacy talks to inmates, I can continue the same high level of quality.

My manuscript for Napa is due today. I'm shooting for early tomorrow morning. Normally, I don't ask for special accommodations, but I figure there's little difference between 11:55PM tonight and 6:45 tomorrow. I hope no one from the Napa office has found my blog.

Overheard at Starbucks: An out-of-work woman meeting with a headhunter. She seemed to have many years of sales and marketing experience in the real estate field, but was considering an office manager job in this same field. Times are tough. And yet, return to the first sentence.
