This was NOT the plan

Oh, man... I started this blog today, with the intent to just write about stuff in general, how much I'm enjoying school, and I don't know, the good stuff for a change instead of all the angst and frustration of my previous blogs. I thought I'd write funny, light-hearted stuff. Or talk about how important it is to me for women to step up in math and science, to know they can do it, and how I feel about that. Just normal, every day topics. Maybe once in a while, I'd toss in some of the stuff I'm working out about my quirks from my past.

Instead, tonight, I found out my husband's step-mother will be taken off life-support on Friday when we thought she was getting better, and a friend I'd lost touch with took her own life in January. I didn't even know. I'd thought about sending her an e-mail, and never got around to it. I... I thought I wanted to write, but I don't. I just want to cry right now.

This was not the plan. It just wasn't.

Oh, no, this is terrible! It's good you have a blog now, for working through the feelings if you want to.
