Today

CockyBastard and G Bunny Goddess wrote some lovely things in their journals.
There’s so much crap going on in my life right now that I’m not sure how to express how I feel about today. I hate the fad for public grieving, the fetishizing of our neuroses (to quote a local journalist), the sheer capitalism in the way the American Public ™ is handling the anniversary.
But the people in my life are not The American Public ™, they’re real people. And I’m glad they’re here and I’m here and we have the ability to feel anything at all about today.
