I'm sorry, Japan.

I never posted about Japan. Not on here, nor on Facebook. I haven't been talking about it at all, because honestly, it bothers me WAY too much. I got sick to my stomach reading the first dozen or so articles about it, and it got so bad that I had to stop reading about Japan, period. Obviously, it's sad as fuck when a tragedy happens like this in ANY place, like Haiti. Or New Orleans. Or the tsunami in southeast Asia. But just as obviously, it's so much worse when it's a place that your heart belongs to. It's too painful to read or think about. Luckily, and amazingly, everyone I know who is from Japan and/or lives there is either a) not in the Tokyo region; b) WAS in the Tokyo region but amazingly wasn't when it happened, or c) not in Japan at all right now. So, I am sooooooooooooo happy and relieved for that, to put it utterly mildly. But omg. Japan. I'm so sorry, Japan. What else can I say?! :(

And so, that's what I think about this whole Japan thing, since so many people have been asking me. Honestly, I think it's a pretty stupid thing to ask. What do I think about what's happening in Japan? Really? What do you think I think? Ugh. :/
