Mile 3,241

I started my new job today. I was canvasing for Grassroots Campaigns on behalf of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). I was really nervous at first--canvasing means basically going around asking random people for money. With GC, there is a rap you have to memorize and there are quotas every canvaser has to meet and that made me very nervous. Luckily, it was a lot easier to get the rap down than I thought it would be and I made quota my first day, even though we were at what my supervisor noted was a sucky location--a grocery store near UCLA on a Friday night--it was all college student and half-drunk people running in to buy beer and nobody wanted to stop.

I could have worked that job again today, but I'm not ready just yet to give up my yoga class on Saturday mornings and I haven't gotten my sleep schedule worked out. And since the Saturday shifts are 9-5 instead of 2-10, I thought it might be difficult to do one back-to-back. But maybe that's just an excuse. Looking forward to yoga tomorrow ;)
