Egypt

In light of recent events in Egypt, with the monumental amount of protesting and backlash, it's hard to be interested in my mundane existence (or anyone else's) at the moment. I know it's a complicated situation, but I admire the protesters for their organized efforts to achieve justice. And the government has shut off Internet access for most of the country -- this is huge. I'm still processing everything, but damn, I can't quit thinking about what's happening on the other side of the world. The Guardian has a page of live updates that you can follow for the latest news.

I feel an overwhelming sense of perspective that I can't put into words right now.
