But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Sounds like there has been an explosion at the nuclear plant; several workers injured. No linkable info at the moment. Here's the reuter's blog: [link]

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I just heard that Japan's coast moved 8 feet to the east. Holy crap.

Yeah, and the axis of the earth shifted.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I've yet to hear from my friend Yoko. Upon reading her Facebook I see that she had arrived in Japan before the tsunami.

I know communication is rough right now. Sort of counting on that.

Our wings are not tired.

I wish SO MUCH that none of us had such overwhelming stresses.

Indeed.

Still watching the news loops. I am about to take a break by watching taped fictional tv. I see Fringe, Bones, and House in the queue, lots of horror there of the not really real variety. Maybe recorded soaps would be even better.

The links on the earth moving are simply amazing.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm having a bit of a stressy week myself, even if for the most part it's good stress, like starting a new job. The tsunami news just puts the damn week over the top and not in the good way.
