Hilary and I had a grand ol' chat at prc and on the walk home. We discussed almost exactly the things that the epic post touched on. Confession: I recycled some phrases from my post. I tried to deliver them as if they were spontaneous, and not previously contrived. No matter. The issues are the same, but I feel better.

We discussed social work . . . a lot. I don't actually want to be a social worker per se, but I am very interested yes indeed, very interested in "Social Work [as] a profession that focuses on complex and dynamic human and social interactions. I've always been fascinated with people (ahem, people watching like there's no tomorrow etc.) I don't know. We'll see. I figure that if I can go to Paris with lots of ideas and options floating around my brain, I can gradually drain out what I don't need and get going with my life.

Farmer's Market tomorrow, so so excited. And, I need to find a local bike shoppe to buy a new tire pour mon velo! I understand W-Mart has good prices but I've decided that I'm willing to go to extend my financial effort to support local companies. Any excuse to avoid giving that company my dinero is worth it.
