So today I found out at our pharmacy meeting that we were named number one for customer service out of all the Wegmans pharmacies. This is a HUGE deal!!! So i recommend that everyone bring their prescriptions to the Amherst street pharmacy-which of course happens to be just off of Elmwood!

I don't know if it is just because of this site, but I really think that "the strip" is the best part of Buffalo. I think its because it is about as Hippie as you can get around here. And I totally wish i was a Hippie. Most people are just really cool and diverse and open. It is a lovely area, that just feels so close knit and art-sy (sp?) (which I am NOT, but would like to be). Actually, my word-a-day calendar had a good word to go along with Elmwood: Convivial, which means good food and interesting conversation.

Although I have had a journal since the 5th grade, i have never had one on-line. So i guess that means keeping all of the strange and random thoughts to myself?-wait then what fun would a journal be? I am excited about this journal, I just hope that i can make that kind of commitment right now in my life. So I would like the following to be main attractions in my journal:

1. Cool information that i find out (this could take some effort)
2. Random thoughts
3. Random cool questions
4. Probably lotz of lists
5. Progress on my path to self (corny-YES but vital to this journal i think?)

I have come to a revelation this week...I do not like Chippawa as much as Elmwood. I always thought that i liked it better but now I have to say that I have really noticed the difference in the crowds, and I am partial to Elmwood.

So tonight I am willing to admit that I watched "You got served" The movie if you took out everything BUT the dance scenes was entertaining. I may have to buy the soundtrack even though I am not a big sound track type person because the music was just THAT good!!!

My question for this entry is: (can you hear the drum roll???) Do you think people underestimate our ability to deal with emotionally stressful situation?

---

I think that we do. We seem to always think that anything we feel that isn't good is unacceptable. So often we feel on the edge, but i think that it is because society does not give us that support saying its okay to have emotional difficulty. I think we are just really scared of emotional pain and i definitely do not exclude myself.

I feel like i need a signature ending like "Seacrest (SP?) out" or "Take care of yourself and each other." Maybe i will work on that?
