It’s been snowy and cold, in the 30s. It’s windy right now and as much as I hate the cold and snow, I love hearing the sounds of nature and wind chimes as opposed to barking and banging. This is day two now that I haven’t had to hear from the canal dog or the one in front. I just hope the power doesn’t go out. It happened to a lot of people last night who came into work late today, according to Tom.

Tom continues to hate his job so much that he almost wishes he could work elsewhere till he can quit.

Saw Estella the other day who had her hair up and who looks 10 years older with it that way, but no Liz. What’s the point anyway? I’ll never have her even for just a friend. After that time I was given false hope when she gave me that friendly “hello” and asked how I was doing, each time I saw her after that was more and more discouraging. The next time I saw her, she checked us out but barely glanced at me. The next time we were checked out by someone else and she still didn’t see me, even though I was just a few feet away. The last time she walked by me and again she never saw me.
