Yeah... maybe it's the ongoing news coverage, maybe it's the length of time, but it's all too easy to imagine yourself there. I've dreamed of it, sure, and I've donated to relief drives several times now. I wish there was something more tangible I could do, but I don't see a way to go down and volunteer without losing my job, and though we do have a couch and could theoretically offer it, have you ever seen how small this apartment is? (And you have to go through our bedroom to get to the only bathroom... I'm ok with that at night with friends, but I really would be uncomfortable with strangers in that.) I did see someone on freecycle yesterday asking for clothes for someone who's sheltering with them, and fortunately it's all the sizes I've grown (back!) out of, so I offered those. It's something, at least.
