Sad Feelings...

Today has been filled with sad feelings.... and its not even 10am.

This morning, my mom and I were talking about possible flights home for weddings and such while I'm at school in St. Louis... and it looks difficult and expensive for me to come home for Bryan and Caroline's wedding. This makes me very sad because I've known Bryan since I was born, and we grew up together like siblings... and in knowing Caroline for over 11 years we've done shows together and even traveled to Europe together... and I want to go to their wedding SOOOO BAD!

Then, I got to work and checked my e-mail only to find that the Philosophy PhD student from England already found another roommate so she won't be able to live with me. I was hoping that I had this whole living thing worked out... but... no soup for me. Now I have to find a way to figure out who's coming for their MSW or something and who needs a place to live... waaaahhhh!

Plus, I had an e-mail from a friend I was planning to drive to Chico to visit (with Mason). And apparently his wires got crossed and he isn't as available that weekend (the only weekend that works... or should I say worked for all of us). So my road trip may not happen after all... WAAAAAAHHHH!

THEN, I went to my yahoo homepage to torture myself about St. Louis weather and I noticed a story about the family that got stuck in Oregon (the one where they found the mom and kids in the car but the dad had gone out for help)... and they found him... but he's dead. He went out in search for help to save his family... he walked over 8 miles in the snow with no hat and in tennis shoes... and... he's dead. That's so heart wrenching I just wanna cry.
