...oh.
Got up this morning; got dressed, and walked to Ashby BART for the ride into work. Walked up the hill to the office, still in a reasonably good mood...
And there's all this weird 'are you okay, you were in the States, right, have you heard from...' voicemail on my phone. And my Uncle Paul is asking frantically whether I've heard from my cousins (two in London, one in Cali). And it's all very strange.
And then I check the news, and it suddenly isn't all that strange at all.
Idiots have set off bombs in London. Idiots. What possesses people to think this sort of thing is a good idea? That it will make anyone support your cause? Didn't the world response to September 11th teach them that it doesn't work, now we've got to go adding July 7th to the mix as well? Idiots. Idiots and bastards, and...
I'm so sorry, everyone. This is horrid.
Humanity annoys me sometimes.
