Yesterday, I found out my cousin is getting divorced in a extremely complicated situation that basically involves a transgender murder plot, and it put my own life's issues in sudden perspective. Suddenly, being anxious over playoff hockey seemed a very slight burden to bear, in the grand scheme of things ( Read more... )
