What is Wrong with People?

That, my friends, is the question. When people say they will do something, their word doesn't mean anything. Seriously, I don't trust anyone anymore. It's sad, but it's true. Let me tell you my story:

I thought it would be fun for the journalism grad students to get together for drinks tonight downtown. So, I talked to people and sent out an email. I had three people tell me to my face that they would definitely be there. So, I waited and waited and waited and waited, and finally the doorman asked me if I was okay, so I thought I'd better leave. What is wrong with people who don't want to go out and have a fun night? I know some of these people are just sitting at home.

You know what the saddest part is? I'm not even surprised that no one showed up.

Sometimes, I feel like my life is just one long string of disasters. I know I shouldn't say that because some people have real problems, like war and famine and abuse. But it would make my year if just ONE thing could go right. That would be friggin' fantastic.
