August 26 Some random bits of Becky: ---I consider myself to be worth knowing. But it always pleases me (and occasionally surprises me) when someone else decides I am. ---Once I decide someone is worth knowing, and worthy of being called friend, it is extremely rare for me to change my mind. ---One of these days, I'll tell you about having to deal with a well-closeted misogynist. The short version? He decided I was the enemy. Until well after he made that decision, he was mistaken. ---I have a very, very good memory. Usually the things I'm good at remembering are things that most people don't expect me to remember. Sometimes it even startles me that I've remembered something. ---One of the guiding principles in my life is that people are more important than things. This is one reason I was content to work for the two non-profit agencies for less money than I perhaps could have made elsewhere. ---The reasons for changing jobs to the second of those two agencies were not good ones. I knew that was true going into the job, and let myself ignore that bit of truth. That was not a wise thing to do. * * * * * * * * * * * Yes, Sister Betty, as soon as I'm sleepy. The new secretary and I had a great deal of fun planning this surprise...and we're glad it worked!
