welcome to wartime

I could have posted about my day, which was pretty eventful, but right now I just feel like ... not.
I have that same feeling I remember from Gulf War I, that "the world is ending, how can people go about their normal lives?" feeling. I can't imagine going to work tomorrow and just doing my usual thing. OTOH, what am I gonna do, sit on my sofa all day and watch CNN? I don't have enough tears in me for that.
And it's worse this time around too, compounded as all my feelings of helplessness are by the whole "how can I bring another child into this crap?" guilt thing. Not to mention my mom being thousands of miles away in Hawaii where I can't reach her and have to worry about her too. All in all, not good news for my state of mind.
Of course, the sleep deprivation can't be helping either. I should really get to bed.
May the world have mercy on us. But not too much. It's more than we deserve.
