So far in 2007....

- I've had a sinus infection that would not die
- I had to put about $650 worth of work into my car
- I spent my birthday in an ICU in Akron with my dying grandfather
- My grandfather did actually die (the day after my birthday, which happens to be my father's birthday)
- We (i.e., my mother and I) had a crisis of religion. It wasn't a crisis of faith- we were totally down with the God part- but more of a break with the Church
- My grandmother became rather ill and increasingly incapable of being left on her own during the day
- Our pet rabbit died, while I was in the next room. I heard her scream and she was gone when I went to investigate.
- There were issues at work which ultimately led to me sort of losing my job (I quit, it was my choice, but it's not entirely inaccurate to say I lost my job, either)
- My grandmother wound up getting extremely sick and going into the hospital where she died a week later.

And it's not even June yet. Things have to get better from here, or I'm boycotting the rest of 2007.
