There was a story in our experience, but the words weren't coming. After reading a diary published by exmearden last year, the lightbulb went off. "I can do that." She helped me find my voice, for which I will forever be grateful. From there the words just flowed.

There was a reason it had to be held back until now, which will be explained at the end. A warning, however, it is long, and it is personal, for those who don't like personal.

My first diary was written over a year ago, though never published. There was a reason it had to be first. However, in light of my experience these last two days, that first diary will have to wait, yet again.

In July of this year I registered with a temp agency where I know one of the owners. He hooked me up with the person who places office help. Once upon a time I did secretarial work, and was an office manager in a couple of hospitality industry firms. And I can type fast and transcribe. That’s at least good enough for a temp position every now and then, right? Well, apparently no.
