You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I have written up a large post with recommendations for how you can best participate in disaster relief regarding the Tohoku earthquake and subsequent tsunami. Please take a look and consider giving your resources and time. Feel free to share.
In the interest of not burying the lede, my top two recommendations are Christian org: CRASH Japan and Japanese NGO: JEN, both of which were existing disaster relief organizations based in Japan, which were therefore able to sidestep some of the bureaucratic barriers larger orgs have faced and were providing support almost immediately. They both provide both long and short term services, physical and psychological, and both are doing a good job listening to victims needs and requests, with third party confirmation that the aid is reaching those in need.

My Dad is doing his best to keep his head above water, but the financial reality is that the bills from my Mom’s hospitalization and the aftermath of her death are pretty ugly. So I’m asking for donations to help my Dad. The PayPal donation button can be found on my LJ, here: [link]
Thank you, everyone, for your continuing good thoughts and help. We really appreciate it.

Chicago-istas! I will be in your fine city for a conference from June 18 to June 24 and would like to get together for, you know, stuff. My co-worker and I are looking to do various things like eat at Moto and see Second City and TMLMTBGB, so I wanted to start figuring out scheduling availability.

Today is Onerous Task Day. Task yourselves! Paperwork beware. Let the phonecalls fall. To do lists will be to-done.
