Anyone else feeling a little overwhelmed by all the disasters we've seen this year? From tsunamis to hurricanes to earthquakes to the downward spiral that is Iraq, sometimes it feels like the world is getting worse by the day.
I came across a great article about the overload feeling. Here it is, if you want to read it. My favorite quote:
"It's tempting, it's understandable, to want to block it all out, to take only small doses of the horrors of the planet and shun the rest like a Republican shuns poor people."
Things cheering me up right now:
The impending weekend
A chocolate chunk cookie
New jeans
The Death Cab for Cutie concert I'm headed to on Monday
Memories from my mom's visit last weekend
Conversations with good friends
Wireless internet (and relatedly, instant messaging)
Hope that the rain will stop soon
Have a good weekend everybody!
