Office fire update

I really wish my sister hadn't taken the digital camera with her to Colorado. I mean, what, she can take like 12 pictures? Get a damn disposable!

Here's one photo I grabbed from www.ktuu.com:

Have you managed to contact Chris yet?

I feel kinda sad for the building; the only things I have to associate with it now are bad cheesecake and fire. :(

yeah, kind of. I updated this post you commented on; go read what I added. I didnt get to talk to him about anything work related and it didnt seem like the time to ask anyhow.

Wow, as horrible as any fire is, and as morbid it sounds for me to say this, it actually sounds kinda... neat(?) to see the building. I've never been inside a wrecked place like that before.

Also, the box thing is such a you-thing to do, it made me smile. I love that you look for ways to help people even after they've told you there's nothing you can do. :)

It *is* morbidly neat, in that surreal way. I dont think it would of been morbidly neat if it had been a home, though. It's morbidly neater to see something like a barn go up, or some building you're not directly connected to by far. Just anything that isn't sensitive to YOU. I have a lot of mixed feelings about it; worry about work, the fact that I won't HAVE work for awhile if ever hasn't really sunk in yet. I feel like life is on "Pause" right now. Then there's the morbid neatness of the adventure of it, something out of the ordinary -- like your campsite flooding or getting stranded somewhere, in that sort of way. Except this is a building and a workplace and a little bit more permanent than drying out your tent or getting home a day late.

I dont think Chris is going to call. I think at 2:00 I'm going to go down there anyway and see what the situation is and if they need more boxes, I'm going to go over to Fred Meyers and get their new boxes.
