how worried should i be?

sometimes it seems like this world is so messed up, it's gonna just blow up or be blown up real soon.

either that or the second great depression, or some sort of monster plague is headed our way.

maybe i'm just melodramatic.

maybe (almost) everyone in my family is completely losing it, or about to completely lose it.

i think for the first time i'm going to be smart and not buy shit. i'm putting money in the bank tomorrow, and keeping it there.

should i stock pile food too????

and instead of complaining at work, i am going to be sugar sweet. i make ok money, and i need to have a job...

i'm going to hide in my bed now and watch the hills and pretend i own marc jacobs things.

But remember if you have frozen stuff you will also have to have the stuff to cook it. There is nothing wrong with taking shooting classes and getting guns and learning how to be a survivalist and maybe even learn how to plant your own food, not sure what Grows in AZ, as a just in case and to be prepaired. I don't think this world is any worse then it used to be. Remember blacks used to not have any rights, women couldn't vote, there where world wars and plagues. I think that the view that world is more messed up now has a lot to do with how News Coverage is in our country. Take the virgina tech shooting as an example. We heard all this bad stuff. But Yet I bet you other then maybe for sports if you Lived in VA the school was never in the news for good stuff. What about all the good kids who go there and get an education and go on to jobs. See the good stuff unless it is really good doesn't sell so you don't hear about it. Unless it is someone doing something that helps out someone "Bad" or helps a bad thing. For example buying back guns is good and it gets covered because it is part of a crime story, or a fighting crime story.

Sometimes I feel better just putting things in my cart doing online shopping, and then I just don't buy it -or- I make very specific requirements on what I'm allowed to purchase. It must be under $30, make me feel skinny, and be a color I don't already own...

I think everyone is about to almost lose it - if they're not then they aren't living life to its fullest or taking any chances...who wants that?!?!
