Past five years?
- Lost a longtime much admired friend to suicide
- Went into treatment for anxiety as a result; discovered better living through chemistry
- Wrote a fanfic novel
- Lost some friends, made some more, got back into regular contact with some old ones
- Mom sold my childhood home (cleaning it out so her kids didn't have to) and moved to a truly wonderful 'independent living community'
- Watched a once-great workplace circle the drain
- Got laid off
- Went back to school, had a wonderful time, learned a whole lot of amazing stuff
- Been unemployed for over two years now, still looking for a job.
Aside from the suicide and the current job hunting, I'm not regretting much of it.
three and half hours and twenty dollars later, I have the cure!

Jesse, Passive Aggressive Notes had a great note about why NOT to friend your parents on facebook. It made me think of you and laugh!
Should I be good and eat leftover rice and peppers tonight with grilled or baked salmon, or should I go get a Mediterranean veggie flatbread from Tropical Smoothie?

So, the police just left. Mac called 911 and was screaming so they sent 2 officers. He barricaded himself in his room and since they are police officers and not counselors or social workers all they saw was a kid acting "not normal". They wanted to take him to a hospital for evaluation, but I told them I would call our therapist and ask her if I needed to take him in.
Oh, msbelle. Hang in there.
