Learning Patience

I'm having to learn a new rhythm of things here. It takes the morning to have a few pages printed. The afternoon may be spending figuring out how, when, and at what cost I might make copies. Copies may or may not be achieved the next day. I keep a running list of people I need to talk to, because the one person you're looking for isn't in, and might be in PaP, or at home, or coming back soon, depending on whom you ask. So I move on to the next place, or, more often, I find someone else there who is also on my list, so I change tasks. I can count on finding the original person I wanted passing on a random street, or at a party, or anywhere else I'm not expecting. If one were to do things only in order, nothing would ever happen, I'm quite sure. I get the feeling that there's some order in the chaos, but I sure can't find it....
