thecrazyalaskanfreaking obsessed with the atomic bombing of Hiroshima in WWII? Really.
I've been hung up on Hiroshima since around this time last year. The atomic bombings fascinate and scare the shit out of me.
Emphasis on scare. I keep wanting to see the damage done to the people from the blast and fallout, but when I do, I can't sleep for weeks. Literally. I know because I've seen it happen to me. I watched the anime Barefoot Gen this summer, about a boy who survived the bombings. It showed in pretty graphc detail... pretty much everything. I never cried so hard in my life, and I couldn't sleep for weeks. I kept seeing the survivors in my totally empty house. And that's a pretty scary sight. Google it if you don't believe me.
Right now? I'm scared shitless again because it's on my mind.
