fix

tonight, 2 people got into a fight at the drop-in shelter, right before dinner. similar to a calgary flames game, people stood up and gawked and there was excitement in the air. they were then split up by 2 staff members, and taken away(much like the referees). everyone then cheered and clapped. a fix for everyone's longing for nhl hockey.

i met a man who had been there for ten years, volunteering for 16 hours per day, 7 days per week. even though they had offered him a wage, or a spot in low-income housing he did not take it. all he asks for is 3 meals, and a bed at night. an amazing person.
