Behind the words...

So many thoughts running through my head right now in the aftermath of the tragedy in Connecticut, and until tonight, nowhere to say them.  I try not to put politics on my Facebook feed after seeing how divisive the election season was this year....and my Twitter feed is too work related.  Which left me one other option: re-start my blog.  So I wiped the old one, and started anew.  Well, almost anew - Blogger/Google won't separate the old profile and pseudonym, so I will still be posting under an assumed name.  At least it is an appropriate one: ProducerClaire.  Claire of Assisi being the patron saint of television writers.  

This was a looong day, and I'll tackle the thoughts tomorrow, but this is a start.  Until then, I offer the words of others today - words gleaned from Twitter

RT @gregorykorte: How do you write an obituary for a 5-year-old? Then how do you write 19 more?

RT @StephenBus: 9-yr-old: "We were told to hold each others' hands & close our eyes. We opened our eyes when we were outside."

RT @danbowens: "we heard gunshots and we heard a scream on the loudspeaker" -- little girl describing the Connecticut school rampage to me earlier. painful 

RT @dianneg: #iwillnotcryonair #iwillnotcryonair 

RT @gabrielmacht: As I put my daughter to sleep tonight I mourn for the parents who won't be able to do the same because of the killings in CT. #CTShooting

RT @aftrtheshock: We can't bring back one precious child in #Newtown but we can do something loving for a child near us. Kindness fuels recovery & resilience. 

RT @rmarmstrong88: Add first responders to the list of victims.  They have to live with what they saw.  #PrayForNewtown
