I don't know what it is, possibly the upstairs toilet that overflowed yesterday and sent nasty toilet water through the light fixtures, but I just don't know how much longer I can stay in this motherfucking job. I know I told myself that I would stay for a minimum of two years for resume purposes, but that seems more and more difficult each day

I'm sure its different and also the same...

but I live in Uptown in Chicago... which is where all of the people who used to be on state healthcare for mental illness now live... they were dumped by the system and they chose to continue living in the neighborhood... that's why I can afford to live where I do...

on good days a lot of funny shit happens... and I am entertained by the throngs of "mad" people walking my streets..

on the bad days (usually when I'm tired) I feel uncomfortable on my own street... and so anxious to just get out of the city... its almost claustrophobic.... or however you spell it...

i agree, it is very claustrophobic

it's funny, chris has many of the same complaints that you do about the public library that he works in. i think the constant dragging feeling that no one is doing anything productive on top of patrons who can be downright shitty just gets to a person. i'm sure it probably stings a little more knowing that you moved up for the job and all that. but you're doing good work, and that has to count for something. for all of the crazies that you deal with, i'm sure you've genuinely helped some people who really needed it. and living in nyc is an experience, and something that you really can't duplicate. i wonder if that's why people refer to the city like it's a person, b/c you have good days and bad days with it, just like you would a girlfriend or a best friend. either way, keep your head up, you've got hoes in all different area codes that are rooting for you.
