I hate that I keep being in places where my family has to worry about my whereabouts re: natural disasters, but we are still in Australia, not due to hit Japan until the 30th. It's so scary, though. There was a trivia game in the crew bar last night but we all kept being distracted by the news coverage of the earthquake and the tsunami. I hope all this extreme weather calms down soon, but judging from how things have been going I highly doubt it.
I hope everyone here is well!! I'm just fine otherwise. I'm sitting in an internet cafe in Darwin, Australia, and we'll be in Brunei in a few days! I'm super excited about that.
I didn't have to have radiation today because the treatment center was having a computer upgrade, so I decided to celebrate by taking the car in for routine maintenance, which somehow evolved into two new tires too.
As soon as I finish doing the laundry I need for tomorrow, there's going to be wine.
I switched browsers from Firefox to Chrome on my netbook, and when I imported my bookmarks from Firefox, I found a bunch of random pages that I don't remember even looking at, let alone bookmarking. Including this: [link]
I'm wondering if the cats are trying to tell me something.
Thanks, le nub. Somehow the news always manages to find the Union for Concerned Scientists but not MIT.
Oh my god, y'all. I was having a meltdown today anyway and now I can't look at the news from Japan without sobbing. I'd say I need a valium but I've already taken one. I'm glad all our Buffistas and their people are safe.
SHUT UP PEOPLE IN THE STREET. YOUR HAPPY IS ANNOYING.
And because it deserves its own post, hugs, Zen. Hang in there.

I am right there with you. I was crying so hard and for so long earlier that I actually left a puddle on the bathroom floor. I wouldn't have believed it, except Tim called me in to see it.
Wow, so much of the gang is still here! I was rescuing a box of books from the garage when I found Will the Vampire People Please Leave the Lobby? (And I still have a Buffistas.org Cafe Press mug.) Allow me to say thank you to you all for your friendship in what was a very fragile and strange time in my life. Buffy fandom and you people changed my life and I think also saved it in many key ways. I am grateful to your wonderful, funny, wise and so so shiny selves. Love, ~jengod
