I started crying today at work. There were so many nice old men! I was working in the rotunda, and this old man was being pushed in a wheelchair, and he was so nice, and *I* had always wanted to push *MY* grandpa around in a wheelchair. I would have LOVED to take him to a museum. So then my next shift was in the galleries, and walking around among all these nice old guys, I just started crying. So I found heather, and she gave me a hug and had me go to central (the back room where all the cameras are) and BJ gave me kleenex and let me work cetral for the rest of that rotation. And heather told me it was ok to cry, and I sat there and watched people drift across the monitors, and missed him. I was able to stay there for 45 minutes, because my next rotation was in central anwyay, and then break is now, so I've had a lot of time to recover, and feel better. Man, the staff here is incredible. Very supportive and understanding. I've stared to design a pendant for my grandma. I'll ask Jana to recommend someone to make it. A tiny silver cowboy hat, with a band that says "PETE."
