On Wednesday I decided to be an honest citizen and called Comcast to have my internet reinstated and transferred to my new apartment. While it's great that my karma is being restored and blah, blah, blah I still have to wait until March 5 before the next repair tech can come out. Fucking Comcast. Friday, my neighbor must have gotten fed up with me stealing their internet and put password protection on the network. So right now I'm sitting at Nina's Coffee Cafe catching up on email and whatnot.
I had an interesting opportunity present itself this past week. I was contacted by a woman who is creating a pilot program through the Hope Lodge in Minneapolis where I would be providing Reiki therapy to the residents undergoing cancer treatment. I think this is such a great opportunity for these people to receive a bit of nurturing and comfort in an otherwise sterile medical environment. Cancer treatments are so emotionally and physically draining that I can't imagine having to undergo the treatments away from home. So regardless of your thoughts and opinions on the efficacy of Reiki, everyone feels better after they get a hug or a massage, right? Same thing. She's still trying to figure out the schedule for the treatments so it might be a while before I start but I am really looking forward to working with them. I hope the program is successful.
That's pretty much it with me. Sorry I've been so boring lately. Hopefully I'll have some more wit to add soon.

OK, Lesley, educate me. What is Reiki?
Is the Hope Lodge like the Black Lodge in Twin Peaks? If so, that's awesome.
Dude, I go to Nina's all the time. I'll buy you a cup.
Hey, Tim! Next time I'm at Nina's I'll keep an eye out for you, I'm starting to go there more and more :)
Although I'd hate to disturb your studying...
