Late night night I made a post summarizing my internal parliament's feelings about the war, but marked it private before going to sleep, since I felt somehow doubtful about sharing it. I suppose I didn't want to be seen as an unfeeling cad, since I express no grief at the upcoming loss of life therein, no echoes about hearing a military dude on an NPR talk show yesterday confidently assure that Iraqi civilian deaths would be kept "in the low thousands". After talking about the same ideas with a friend this morning, though, I figure there's nothing to hide, and complete emotional detatchment from the situation is nothing to be ashamed about. (And it's something that comes naturally to me, anyway.) So, it's public again.

In more local news, I am all but decided against the book right now. We'll see if I'll continue waffling about this, but by some arguments the fact I'm waffling at all is even more evidence that I shouldn't pursue this tack. Chuck still hasn't replied from Friday. Hum.

Working at the office today, because I was too focused yesterday to remember to tell Erik I'd be home today, and therefore I would not be home today, as per our agreement. I really wish I was home. Bloody noisy, peopley office. Gotta get me a pair of them wireless headphones...

Sometimes the best way to deal with a horrendous situation is to look at it in emotionally detached ways.
