In general

I've had a lot on my mind lately, and the latest, awful news has really knocked me for six. The news I have been carrying around for three days is this: two people I work with have been charged with a high-profile murder. You would not believe how shaken and upset I am. I couldn't bring myself to say anything before now, but their names and one of their photos have just been published by the local paper. I don't understand why people do such terrible things to another person. No wonder I can't sleep. I wake up during the night feeling completely beside myself. That's enough now. I'm bloody tired.
