What Is Happening Here?

so - life has been pretty unstable as of late... which has caused me to ponder a great deal about Life in General.

i just relocated to a new job - and my puppies and i were living far from my significant other during the transistion. he was planning to follow us to the new area within a month or two...

i moved near my family and friends again - i was excited about the new job, career, apartment, and the next "stage" in my life.

for once - i really felt things were good and stable for a change!

well -- sadly -- that feeling didn't last too long.

so within a months time, this bubbling begins to occur... my brother tells me that he thinks our parents are getting a divorce, but he isn't really sure. he overhears strange talk from the parents - but can't tell what is really lying beneath.

my brother and I have always been very close so him venting his concern isn't out of character. In part - this is the role we've always kind of played... as the younger, he shares and as the oldest I try to figure out - or fix - the situation.

my investigation into the family situation barely got off the ground before i found out that my boyfirend of over a year had been unfaithful.

when i call home to hear a familiar voice and get some encouragement - i then find that my parents are splitting up... i guess the emotion of my situation lead to the unveiling and comiserating of all the dirty laundry.

everything i knew that was stable and good - crumbled within 4 hours that day.

in everyones life there is trouble and uncertainty - but it rarely all comes down at once - it is usually spread out a bit more -- thats been my experience in the past anyway...

so all this chaos brought me around to thinking -
what is happening?

i mean what IS happening?!

my parents are not great people - they are Regular Dysfunctional People - like the guy two cubicals over, the weirdo on the metro train, the lady at the grocery store who unloads 45 items in the 10 or under aisle....

so -- what does this mean?

i've been mislead... i am quite confused but i hope to vent it out here on this blog.

hmm - we'll see......
