Even I know when I need to stop watching. When my brain can’t take it anymore, and my eyes tear up, and my chest clenches.
Christ, my head hurts, from staying awake until 4 AM talking about the Middle East, and the news, and international politics and more news…
“The Berlin Wall of our age.” I really hope she’s right.

The nightmare that is...
Honestly, I’m paying more attention to Libya lately, more than anything else that could ever go on this blog.

I didn’t pay enough attention to Egypt, and I’m paying for it now. I wish I had never watched some of those videos, for my own peace of mind.

Red Dreams
Wait.
Three days.
Every morning, every hour, check again.
Wait.
Fourth morning. Still no sign.
It was negative.
Seven days left to February.
Wait.
Deeply embedded panic.
Papers, reading, schoolwork, parents.
Hide.
Slowly ever-increasing paranoia.
Patience.
Wait.
