Holy crap.

This post is not full of fun and rainbows.

Two craptastic days in a row.  One was all about me, today is all about others.  A beautiful, wonderful human being is at the hospital now for an exploratory heart procedure.  She's not in her 20s anymore, but still too young for this sort of thing.  I am so sad that this is happening to a person who deserves peace and goodness from her body.  It may be nothing too serious, but to my mind, anytime a doctor cuts you to go inside your body, it is serious.

And wait, there's more, another person in my life was just tossed into the throes of a relationship's end.  Tears, frustration, awkwardness. 

Yesterday, was craptastic because I got the letter saying that I am not wanted by the Foreign Service.  My test score was not high enough to secure me a slot in the interview phase.  I may try again next year, but I am sorely disappointed.  I didn't think I would be, but I am so eager for change in my life that I put much more hope in this possibility than I realized.

So.  Tonight my parents and I will drink lovely beer and eat sinful German food.  The only good way to end a set of craptastic days.
