So I wake up late this afternoon... well, early this afternoon.

And I check my journal. And I randomly check a comm somebody's in,

statements, and see a lot of vague statements about worries and such. In my dazed state, I still eventually realize that they can't all be talking about the Olympics still, so I check CNN....

HOLY SHIT.

I know people in London. At least, I know people in England and the whole place is a bit of a blur to me, and I'm not sure where in England any of you actually are, so if my friends could kindly comment and tell me they're not, y'know, dead I'd be very happy.

Note the breezy tone of this post. This is how I cope with the situation. It is not meant to indicate in any way that I am not taking this seriously. However, I'll pretend I'm not until I find out a bit more.

Edit: Regarding the community for the purpose of keeping track of LJ'ers who are in London....

It occurs to me that terrorist attacks and natural disasters will happen again and again and again...

Somebody should make a comm that is inactive except in emergencies, so we wouldn't have to keep making new ones.

I'll wait until after this crisis passes, then start one. I'm cynical enough, right?

Or maybe I won't.
