It's interesting to see how current events impinge on my life. Almost every morning, I see chaplains and military personnel walking over the bridge above the highway into Arlington National Cemetary. I imagine they are heading to funerals. This morning, the news of a school shooting in Minnesota was a shock. The fact that it was in a Native American community made it less surprising but no less sad. I'm surprised there isn't mention of it in any of my friends' livejournal posts. My boss (who is in Minnesota) and I had a few email exchanges with her about it.
