I'm so upset today. More than any other day before, really. I've been sitting here trying to write, and nothing's coming to me.

If you're American, and not a resident of the disenfranchised District of Columbia like me, please write your Senators and Congress people and ask them to help the Gulf States immediately.

I'm leaving for Montreal tomorrow. I think it may be good for me to go to Canada and not watch so much news.
