i can't believe it's already may.  so much has already happened this year, that an attempt to chronicle it all would surely be a futile endeavor.

the question du jour:  is it ok to be friends with bad people?  i've already concluded that dating those of weaker moral fiber is out of the question - a hard learned lesson, though one that i probably needed to learn.  what effect will these type of people have on your life, if for whatever reason you are willing to keep them around?
