Je suis Paris
10 years ago
A whole year.
I have to be honest with you. I dont update a lot here because Im still gun shy about a lot of things. Trust is a big thing with me and I dont trust very easily. But Im trying.
What has happened in a year?
Honestly, not much. I quit my job in July. Spent 3 months jobless. That was fun. I hate being broke. I really do. So much awesome stuff going on and I wasnt able to do it. Oktoberfest came and went and I did pout. And then Wizard Con came to Tulsa. *sigh* I had my cosplay all done and ready to go. But alas... Couldnt go.
And now I have a job with the local grocery store that just opened up. Im using muscles I havent used in 14 years. Its a bit to get used to. Ive already lost 10 lbs just running around.
I got home from work yesterday. Tired, sore... and then breaking news came on.
Paris.
Im still reeling.
To any Parisians or French that do happen to read this, I am so so very heartbroken for you. I sat in shock watching it on Tv and I could never EVER comprehend something like that happening here in my backyard. My heart aches for the families and friends of those lost and the survivors and witnesses to such horrible acts.
Its deplorable. Its inhumane. Its unthinkable.
I dreamed about Paris last night. The chaos and the horror and I woke up crying, and I immediately reached for my phone to check the news.
I wish, I really really wish, there was something I could do. Something physically I can do to help you, Paris.
Reste fort Paris.

We need to remember that these insane extremists make up a very, very small number of this planet. As long as that continues to be the case...we really have nothing to fear.
