Perspective

I have been stewing all morning. Actually, I've been stewing on and off since yesterday afternoon. I was debating whether or not to log on here and blow off some steam about what a petty, self-centered, spiteful, [insert your choice of rude adjective for nasty-unpleasant-female here] my ex roommate is, and whether doing so would make me just as bad as her...

Then I checked my email and saw that my friend's husband is being deployed to Iraq in January. They just had their second child.

Sort of puts my own bullshit problems in perspective, huh?
