Probably not blogging . . .

Anyone out there wondering where I've been, I apologize for my long absence. I have been depressed again, this time not so mildly. It's one of those things where I dwell on everything, especially how disappointed I am in humanity at the moment. I don't know any other way to put it. I hate people right now. They disappoint me, disgust me, bore me . . .

Terrorists suck--seems like a no-brainer that terrorism is bad, but if the terrorists don't think they are terrorists, where does that leave us? And then, for that matter, their justifications for terrorism are "self-defense" and things like that. Yeah, maybe so, but what else have you tried on such a global scale to get your message across? Because bombing and killing people just doesn't make sense to the people you're trying to change. We see you as raving lunatics who can't be reasoned with, so more people end up dying on both sides! It's a lose-lose situation. It depresses me.

Then there's China. Oh, China, China, China . . . How disappointed I am with you at the moment. First, it's slaughtering puppies and kittens for fur coats sold as faux fur, then the pet food poisoning, the toothpaste recall . . . I could go on. Recently, defective tires can put people's lives at risk. Do the right thing here! Can we trust imports from this country anymore? If food is being poisoned and consumers are being defrauded, doesn't that mean we shouldn't be buying your products? And why are there so many people out there trying to make money above all else, without thinking of the human cost? Why? And why doesn't anyone else think it's so horrible to be slaughtering puppies, people's pets, and then lying about it? Why isn't there more of an uproar over this? I don't understand it.

Politics has been depressing me, the weather here, feeling bored and unfulfilled . . . I'm getting ready to see a professional, believe me. Don't go there in the comments. I'm already taking care of it. But I'm just so mad I can hardly sleep. And I miss having friends around and having things to do. I am seriously bummed.

So what have I been up to? Not much. Lost more weight, opened a couple of Cafe Press stores, worked on some artwork, planted some tomato and strawberry seeds. That's about it. And I've been sulking and feeling sorry for myself. That's not very interesting, either! Guess I need to find a new hobby!

Well, I'll post the links to my stores shortly, just don't want to tack them on the end of a depressing rant. Hope you understand.

Take care,
R
