reality check.

Yesterday morning, an apartment building down the road from me went up in flames, and damaged three restaurants attached to the building as well. More than 23 people lost their apartments and belongings.

Yesterday, a magnitude 7 earthquake hit Haiti, leaving tens of thousands of people homeless and officials fearing more than 100,000 dead.

Today, I am grumpy because my boyfriend is 300km away, and I may not have a job in April.

...doesn't seem like much of a comparison, does it?
