When Completing Handshakes - Cassels

Practicing my facial expressions

To appear relaxed and at ease

I stare at my reflection

Or is it staring at me???

I colour code my problems

Based on their varying levels of internal conflict

The result: a sea of orange

And a spreadsheet which is becoming

Increasingly complex

Next, I chart my progress on maintaining eye contact when completing handshakes

A vast improvement on May and June

But I could have done without that school reunion yesterday

The daily survey with my girlfriend

To ascertain whether her affection

For me

Has wained

Came back

Much the same;

Ambivalent at best

Questioning seems to irritate

Considering methodology change
