maybe. i think so.
Many wonderful people have asked me that ... The best way I can describe it is with the answer I wrote to Jane:
“The press and others are trying to demonize Pres. Steger. And I think that's just awful. He's an honest, caring, wise man, who did the best thing he knew to do at the time, with the information he had at that time.
“I'm sure there are people who just need to talk and tell somebody about it all -- it seems when anyone asks me anything about it, i start running off at the mouth without even meaning to -- but yes, people need their privacy!! The problem is, the news media, however well-intended, will make a circus out of it today -- and then, next Monday, when everyone here is thinking, "oh, dear God, it's a week ago today", the news media will be off somewhere else, with another fresh circus. And, inevitably the only ones who will remember after that are the ones who have a direct connection to Va Tech.
“Am i working today? well, the answer to that is no and yes, sort of. i'm sitting at my desk and trying to figure out why i can't think.
“i know why i can't think. but then, i wonder why my mind feels so numb, and why i'm so exhausted. And then, i'm grateful to God that i'm not the one planning a funeral...”
OOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ...
i just feel like howling. and screaming. and running and running and running until i just pass out.
i reckon that's normal.
maybe.
i think i'm okay.
am i?
