DC is still a major city right?

The wildfires in San Diego are making me sad.  It’s horrible the loss of homes.  And I’m ANGRY that there aren’t enough National Guard troops or Marines to help out b/c they’ve exhausted them over in Iraq.

So I went to a Singles Symposium at my mom’s church.  It was good although it didn’t really talk about singleness per se.  It was more about just being a better person.  There were several people I wished I could have had there beside me.  I’ve had to think about the people in my life and what they are doing for me and what I am doing for them.  Am I being a good friend?  There were a couple of friendships I had to pray over and in the end I am letting them go.  While all friendships have rough patches (just like any relationship), you shouldn’t all the time be wondering about why is your friend making you feel bad.  Or why your friend is mean to you.

Anyway, now I’ve brought this blog down, so I’ll talk about something more happy.  I might finally close on my house this week.  Jean-Claude happy dance (so named b/c JC loves yellow sheets and does the happy dance on them).  I can’t wait to finally start moving and getting it together.  Shopping for furniture is the worst.  I have none and I haven’t seen anything that has just wowed me to the point where I am like, must have it.  Must have it.  I finally accepted that it’s going to be a long process and I should just wait rather than rush it and have something I hate.  It’s tough being a grown up.

I know I've been complaining in my blog as of late, but I'm on a cynicism upswing right now.  Such as life, this too will change, but in the meantime, I hope you enjoy my whining :o)
