Okay, so obviously everyone has heard about the tragedy that is unfolding in Southeast Asia. To be honest, I've been trying not to think about it. I've been feeling guilty and depressed every time I see something on the news, because here I am in my comfy home, watching my new DVDs, eating good food and having a lovely holiday -- while a staggering number of people are dead, and an even more staggering number of people have had their lives and homes destroyed in the blink of an eye.

So thanks to my OTP queenofthorns' suggestion, I donated some money to Doctors Without Borders. They say the site is experiencing heavy traffic, so it might take a minute to load. (But I'm glad to see others are donating as well and I hope the heavy traffic continues.)

So if you're feeling saddened and guilty like I am, please consider donating. There's also the Red Cross as well as DWB. I hate feeling powerless, and I feel better that at least I've done *something* to help.
