i just found out from my close friend Naomi that our long-time friend Shalom is pregnant. again.

not that i have anything against her being pregnant and all. i've always thought of babies as little blessings. but when you're married to a guy who can't keep a job, has a 9th month-old baby girl who is yet to be baptized, and working for a company you'd rather not work for but pays you a pretty good salary... being on the family way for the second time seems to be more of an inconvenience...hmmm...

i have not spoken with my pal Shalom for a long time. not since the time she borrowed money from me. and that was months ago. i am beginning to think that she is not going to see me or contact me till she has the money to pay what she owes me. in light of the recent news, i think that will be a long, long time....
