I can't get around this gargantuan tragedy that is unfolding. Does anything else matter at this point? I'm finding it difficult to really take anything else seriously in my daily life... I can't escape the feeling that this is in fact so much bigger than anyone is yet willing to admit - beyond even the seemingly immeasurable loss of life so far - big in...

i cant watch or read any of the stuff about all of it.. it makes me too upset. so it results in my seeming entirely insensitive..
some things are jus too much y'know..

it almost doesnt seem real. even lives back home don't seem real right now because of the sudden dramatic effect of this unexpected thing..
ive a friend over there travelling and im not sure whether she's moved onto the next place or what.. even thinking about it gives me goose pimples.. i can't deal with it..

sorry not much help..
there's nothing we can really say. quicker than a war.. killing people... and nothing we can do to prevent the emotions all of us, even if we know no one out there or no one waiting to hear from anyone, or even those who have lost..

one picture which got me was that of a decrased hut, left standing and a hand laying palm up with a little wrist showing, hanging out of the hut. im not sure ill ever erase that form my mind.

sorry to go on a little

Now that reporters are getting closer to the epicentre you can see how powerful it really was, devastating.

I wish I could help you find a better perspective, but we're just going to have to give it time.

I'm so sure he can fly...I'm always telling him that he's half dog half angel, and that he'll appear like an hollogram, like a this chubby cherub...singing something stupid like he loves me...
I wonder if that's his little secret...

well, good friends, while i was greedily indulging self-pity and other such useless anti-christmas emotions, it seems that roughly 20,000 people have lost their lives. 20, 000 and counting, that is, as the true cost of this disaster will only reveal itself over the coming weeks and months. i hope you and yours are all safe and dry tonight, wherever you are. love to you....

I'm also a drama queen. I'm always asking myself...why do I work in something so selfish as art?and when tragedies like the one that occured some days ago happen...I feel even worse, and I blame myself for not doing anything about nothing...
I'm my worst enemy...
hope you're feeling better anyway...you can follow my sect when I give up everything and become a mother Theresa dressed as Eva Peron. (I can't change that much...)
But of course it would seem more like a Woody Allen's movie rather than real life... kiss

you know how sickness will ripple through a community as though all life were a single organism? kinda makes you wonder what the real source of illness is, you know? i woke up this morning with that sort of psychadelic kind of bad-seafood nausea and disorientation - soon heard the soothing sounds of someone nearby puking their guts out. i don't know if it was...

wow, that's nice and depressing.

I haven't been feeling the yule tide spirit this year either. It's just been off. Seems there's not as many lights up and too much work too close to the holiday for me. It's making everything a frenzied rush.

I hope your holiday picks up. kiss

Are you traveling at all?

Thanks for commenting on my set!

ok, so, i'm probably giving this way too much thought...

---but that said, since i can't disable the "favorite suicidegirls" thingy on my hookup, and being that i love and adore each of you with all of my heart, i have decided upon a democratic and egalitarian way of using the space:

this week, the A's ooo aaa

Thanks so much for the kind thoughts. It's cool. I skim people's journals all the time too. wink

yeah...I knew I should go back to the pearl necklace. Just like Billie. Then attack people while I'm drunk and dizzy in a boat bar...
homegirls can be a real danger, it seems...

Shame on Kiefer Southerland, SHAME I say! New season of "24" - guess what? This year the terrorists are your neighbors! USA! USA!

...I almost got in a fist fight with a Bush supporter in a video store yesterday - things just keep getting weirder and weirder out here on the frontier...

Any of you other LA locals hear about the several hundred bodies unearthed...

Policeman: Knock, knock.

Woman: Who's there?

Policeman: The police. I'm afraid there's been an accident. Your husband has
been killed.

There's an Englishman, an Irishman and a Scotsman. They are all trapped in a

Eventually they all starved to death.

Why I'm not a SG? I'm not fit enough that's for sure, every girl on this site are soooooo slim their ribs are sticking out, I'd look like a fatty, or something. Then, I don't know, if I was going nekked on the net, I would like to own the pictures myself. DIY... wink

Nothing fun is going on here, I actually did sleep right through this day, almost. When I got up, around 2... then it got dark really fast. It's hard to catch the sun here this time of the year.
severus:
Yeah yeah I'm not fat but my ribs doesnt stick out of my body.... wink

Maybe I am a supergenius, it sounds good to me...
how are you today, what are you doing?
Here it's after midnight, so it's sunday... always a
kind of lame day I think... I have some writing to do,
and still tons of cleaning to take care of, too much stuff
everywhere.. bok

edited because i can't spell.
