Regular Work Day

By Joe

Normally, I work from home on Fridays, but today is different. I worked from home in the afternoon on Tuesday and Thursday, because I knew I’d have to go into the office today. There is an event/meeting in the museum this morning, and I have to be in early to let the caterers in so they can set up before the meeting. I usually get to work at 7:30 am (except on my teaching days when I try to get there at 7 am to prepare for class). My coworkers usually arrive after 8 am when we open. I don’t know what they do when I’m not there, probably open late. Anyway, since the caterers are coming at 7:40 and I normally get there at that time, I said I’d work at the museum today instead of my usual WFH day. Sometimes, I’m too nice to my coworkers, who, quite honestly, don’t deserve it. Oh well, hopefully, I’m building up some good karma.

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's. My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces. View all posts by Joe
