May 24, 2010 Weekend Update
I had a fabulous weekend.
Saturday I went to an NYU School of Continuing and Professional Studies one-day seminar on Moving into Non-Profit and Social Impact Jobs. I met a great deal of amazing like-minded individuals, learned more tips for job searches, got tons of new information and even some great book recommendations. I’m really glad I went. I feel freshly inspired to end global poverty, empower women, bring education, health care and safe food advocacy to domestic institutions, implement sustainable business practices and protect animals. Of course, I can’t tackle all of this alone, but its good to know that there are forums for me to outlet my compassion. And others who are willing to do it with me.
After class I met up some kids from my kick ball team at East River park for a practice session followed by some seriously delicious mexican grubs.
Sunday, Jack and I went to Madras for an all-vegetarian indian buffet which was absolutely delish. Afterwards, we kicked around, stopped at B&N so I could pick up a book, sat in the park, then headed to Madelines for dessert. I could live in that place, it’s so cozy.
Now, I’m sick again which seems to be the routine every few weeks or so. I’m only hoping I feel better by tomorrow for our second kick ball game. I really intended to kick some ass which will be greatly affected by my inability to breathe through my nose. I’m also 99% sure I’m joining a summer soccer league which will be great. I haven’t played in some years and maybe getting back on the field is just what I need.
The chronic sinus infection or whatever it is that I have occurring every few weeks has to stop. It’s making me both physically and emotionally drained. Obviously when sick I get fatigued, like most people, but it’s also making me depressed because I don’t know what is wrong with me. Of course, all of these thoughts of auto-immune diseases are running through my head and obviously I can’t help being a certifiable genius after watching every episode of House ever made. Symptoms are coursing through my mind….anyway, thats enough self-diagnosis.
It’s time to go read and drink some tea.
