"Don't waste any time mourning. Organize!"
-Joe Hill
My brother texted the family group chat this quote before he went to work today. I'm not in a good place this morning, but we can't lose ourselves to despair. I know I have a lot of anger right now, but getting into whose fault that is won't help anyone.
Dwelling on the people I will never forgive won't help anyone.
I'm not that optimistic, but hope is a choice we can still make. It's a hard one to make this morning, but I'm still going to do my best. We are where we are, and focusing on yesterday won't change that. We can only move forward, and save as many as we can along the way.
There will be a tomorrow because we're going to make sure there's a tomorrow.

this is why I have 2 alarm clocks to wake me up for work
My radio-alarm rings first to wake me up, and again to tell me it’s time to get off the computer and head to work. If something important is happening, I also set my phone to go off as well.
I find setting my cell phone to play long bits of increasingly harder to sleep through music. Usually the long “Climbing the Down” sequence from Watership Down, or Rascal Flatts singing “God Bless the Broken Road”. In case of seriously anticipated emergency, “Ride of the Valkyries”. 🙂
I have a Twitter bot that’s notify enabled on my phone.
It sends tweets over and over every morning until you reply to it with “Ohayo!”
It took me a little while to realize the Z’s were the alarm and not Megan snoring.
It was supposed to be Megan snoring because her alarm never went off, but now I guess it’s whatever people want it to be. 😛
I love the light through the blinds at 10:30. Actually I love that whole overhead view – a nice new perspective.
