ranting

Look at meee, bored again. It seems like whenever I'm bored, I come here and tell you ALL about my life. I'm just soo glad you care....

Today a lotttt of my family was here. Like, at least 30 to 40 of them. And it probably wasn't even half of my actual family.... there's a lot of us. But it was crazy and fun, gotta love family time. Then I went and Celebrated America. One show and then I'm done FOREVERRRR! Alleluia.

A good friend of the family was diagnosed with kidney cancer earlier this week. He's going in for surgery on Tuesday to have his kidney removed, which we're hoping will take care of it. He is one of the BEST people I know and I really don't understand why such shitty things happen to such great people. It never ceases to amaze me. Why can't all the criminals and child abusers be struck with cancer (which I know is a horrible thing to wish upon anyone...) instead of the great people that make a positive impact on so many lives. It just seems like so many amazing people have gotten cancer recently and it's not fair that they are taken from us when they had so much life left to live. I guess God has it all in His plan, but I sure don't know what that plan could possibly be. I mean, people try to say He needs more angels in heaven, but don't you think He has plenty up there? Seriously, He has thousands of generations of    angels floating around up there (don't get all theological with me now... I realize they aren't angels, they're saints or whatever... bear with me), I don't think He really needs to take the ones from us. They still have so much left to live for and so many more hearts to touch here on earth. I guess I'll never understand but it would sure make life easier if I could know what greater purpose this has... cause I sure can't see what it is.

Ooof, sorry about that. When I get going on something, it becomes realllly hard to stop. Plus it's like 11:30 at night and the later it gets, the more emotional I become. I should stop now before I say something I really regret later.
