Something terrible happened. On Thursday a mentally ill man walked into my workplace and shot a bunch of people, injuring four people who I know and killing a really, really nice kid I'd met once or twice and whose death is the biggest fucking tragedy I've ever heard. I'm not doing so great. A lot of people aren't doing so great.This is so fucking

been staring at this comment form for minutes and i'm at a loss for what to say. don't guilt yourself, at least... here i am trying to avoid guilting myself for not reading the news more carefully, and so on.

*big hugs*.

I'm so sorry. :-( Let me know if you need to talk to someone about it -- I'm always available.

I guess a real hug will have to wait for Carnival, because that's the next time I'll see you. So until then, *more hugs*.

I don't even know what to say anymore. I just want to crawl into someone's arms and be held and kept safe forever.

I was thinking about you when I heard about this. I received a text from furious_mold, although it actually *did* make the national news. My Mom filled me in on a bunch of the details last night on the phone.

*more hugs* I heard about this from a friend who works a few blocks away...I didn't know that it was your workplace. I'm so glad that you are okay, and so sorry that others are not.
