the day I took out books at the library

wed nes day

I woke up in the middle of a dream where lyra belaqua, harry potter and an elephant were running away and had to jump through the window into the next world and a creature resembling Pan that singing half goat man was chasing us.

I really didnt want to get out of bed because it was 25 degrees out and my widget predicted snow. but i bundled up in multiple layers and made it to ed. psych on time.

it was an interesting class I learned about Dysthymic depression. It is a type of disorder whre the person is pretty functional but it lasts over several years and affects their thought processes and makes them negative and they have self esteem issues and it can be treated by psychotherapy and cognitive behavioral therapy. i imagine its harder to diagnose that there is an actual problem because the person might just be viewed as pessimistic when in fact their mind is still affected chemically.

i went to the career center in palladium and was so mad bc i need my actual social security card or passport they wont take a copy and i just wana start workinggg
I was in a really bad mood but then i saw this homeless guy holding a puppy and pet it and felt better, so i went and got it some fancy puppy food from whole foods, and some cookies for the guy, he was pretty young like in his 20s. they found the puppy and its so cute. some guy walked by and told him to give it away but i understand why he doesnt want to, its his baby now ya know? and if ure sleeping alone on the street ( he said he had a warm place though which is good) i would want a canine companion i mean-didnt you see I am Legend?

then i had group dynamics, and my group talked today and apparently i am still the leader but i compete with this lady mari, i like her she seems relaly interesting she is older and has experienced a lot but she doesnt like authority. she must be of northern european descent I think shes the only natural blond I've seen in a longgg time,
I still think some of the anaylsis is a little far fetched but, at least my group talked today, except this one girl but i think shes shy.

then group dynamics was sort of a review of things we've learned before, too bad because usually its entertaining.

then went to the library and got some books out on domestic violence-my social work paper topic. im too sleepy to get much done now but my goal is to churn it out tomorrow!
