Once again, Fred sums it up

[cranbrryjmp1981]

when i wake up in the morning there is a moment when i realize that its not all just a horrible dream.

it IS real.

it IS happening.

right now.

every single morning there is a jolt to my psyche, and all my body and soul can do is say 'damn.'

damn.

it is crushing to see the only home i've ever known descend so graphically before the world's eyes.

I'm so glad your grandparents have been contacted! I saw the report this morning on finding Fats Domino and I literally cried. Incredibly symbolic of scrambling to save remnants of the beautiful culture the city has built over the years.

Eric and I are in Baton Rouge, but not for long. I'm going to take the semester off and we're going to Atlanta until things smooth over.
