You've got to be kidding me...

I've been glancing through some of my journal entries and noticed that I have had a really negative tone lately. I dislike that, but lately in my life, when it rains it frickin' has a hurricane.

Okay, so grandma is dead. I went to help plan her funeral and afterwards I got a call from a friend to go and hang out. There were a bunch of my friends there when I arrived, we drank some beer, soaked in a hot tub and had a generally good evening. I am very grateful that I have good friends who care about me.

My girlfriend, on the other hand, was absolutely livid that I would hang out with my friends. I had called her to let her know that I would have more free time than previously expected and could we make some time together? When I got to her place, she ripped me to shreds for hanging out with some friends instead of her. I got up, wished her a good life and haven't looked back.

I need to get a dog so someone can run over it.

Looking on the bright side, things can't get much worse.


Something I Had Always Done

When awful things happen to me, I try to imagine how Douglas Adams would be writing it if I were a character in one of his books. I know _Hitchhiker's_ is ubiquitous, but I prefer imagining myself in one of the Dirk Gently books.
