a list of some things that have helped this week of work not be as painful, both physically and emotionally:

- prayers and support of brothers & sisters

- late night visit to UHall to feed some hungry, sleep-deprived college students leftover desserts

- vchatting with an old studyabroad friend who is in china(r) teaching Engrish

- listening to bethel live's "here is love" album on the commute to/from work

- sunny days, cool nights

- a Jesus band-aid for my hand, given to me by my coworker

- making new friends w/ the runners who give me DANIEL food (like white truffle pasta!) and leftover wine... *shhh*

- eating a fig&prosciutto dish tonight that Chef brought for us from the banquet room, as well as eating a fish dish yesterday! noms...

- being able to pipe "Happy Birthday" in chocolate legibly onto a plate now!

- staying up late, knowing that I have a day off tomorrow!

- lotsssssssssss of neosporin for my burn

- Jesus.
