(no subject)
Mise à jour: I realize how incredibly self-centered this sounds. What I was trying to express is that I am profoundly disturbed that I (or anyone) could lose someone that I love because someone else decided that he hates America/Boston/runners/fertilizer etc. I have trouble accepting human frailty and its omnipresence.
I have two close friends who live in Boston, one of whom lived with the Squab and me for several months. She was about to leave to go the finish line when the bombs went off. My brother, his longtime girlfriend and my closest childhood friend and her family live in Texas. My friend lives in Austin which is two hours' drive from where the explosion took place. I am having serious trouble keeping it together this morning.
