>all the news that’s fit to bore you to tears, now with pizza!

>i haven’t come up with a title for this yet. i’m hoping by the time i get done, if i don’t abandon this blog altogether, that something will come to me. *shrug* we’ll see.

i guess i’ve not been very good at keeping you all up on my going’s on. i’m not sure why. it seems like, everytime i start a blog, i start worrying about how it sounds and scrap it.

anyway, what’s going on with me? let’s see…

well, not everyone knows, but my dad had a heart attack almost three weeks ago now. thankfully it was only a minor one and he’s ok now, but he’s still just as stubborn and hard to get along with. i had hopes that he would feel a new lease on life and quit being so grumpy and argumentative with mom. hahahahah! i’m so naive.

i’ve tried to hide it some, but this week has been really rough, emotionally, for me. k has been acting up a lot lately, getting into things he’s not supposed to and creating huge messes. it feels like nothing i do deters him from doing the same thing over and over again, which has left me feeling frustrated and upset. added to that has been just a general sort of depression from reading some blogs and news stories that have been really depressing. so many of them have to do with children. and i can’t seem to shake that stuff. it reminds me of why i had stopped watching the news or reading the paper long ago. i end up dwelling on stuff for days and days, sometimes longer.

i mentioned some blogs there, but i hope no one takes me to mean that i don’t think you should blog what you feel like blogging about. we all can’t be smiley happy 24/7 and i certainly don’t expect that from anyone. i don’t want anyone to censor themselves on my account or feel that i’m asking them to. i’m perfectly capable of not reading something i don’t want to read. i am probably just digging myself deeper here, so i’ll move on. *sigh*

there has been a bit of happy news to report, too. after all the whining and complaining that i’ve done about my crappy camera, i’ve finally come into possession of a dslr that i’ve been longing after for months. maybe appropriately, it landed in my hot little hands on valentines day. it’s really too bad that it hasn’t improved my photographic skills an iota. they actually seem much, much worse now. i guess, once i figure out how the damn thing works, that will change, but only time will tell. i suppose i could show you all a few photos that aren’t completely embarrassing.

and here is one of the very first photos i took. laughable, but i was desperate for something to photograph.
