A low-point

While certainly far from being a breaking point, yesterday certainly marked the lowest point to date in 2008. Having learned of an inconvenient truth, it seems that the support structures that have existed in the various aspects of life have been systematically failing.

First it was that. Now this. What next? What more does fate have to take away from me in this year.

Talking didn't seem to help. Walking away isn't an option either.

With all the events shaping up to this point, I had thought there was at least one thing I could look forward to, and it could be all but guaranteed to happen. Apparently my belief in the system was well-misplaced. Though a short-term setback, and in the long-term it may not be an issue at all, it still stings bad, like a cold shower and a slap in the face.
