12:50pm: Leave for work, pull out of parking lot of apartment building; there's a car laying on its side, fire engine and police officers beside it, directing traffic.
1:05pm: Panic mode engaged in full; have to pull over for a while to calm down (I am super affected by seeing stuff like that for some reason)
1:25pm: Get into work, seems like a normal day. Start calming down a little more.
3:30pm: Learn that there's been a shooting in Seattle; feel shaken.
8:45pm (15mins before our store closes): informed that there's helicopters, police dogs, police officers, etc. at the hotel next door; feel thoroughly terrified.
MY DAY HAS BEEN HORRIFYING
