"Dear diary, today someone decided to blow up my previous workplace"
I woke up to a message on Facebook about possible explosions at the airport, then obviously it escalated as we know.
At the time I heard, m boyfriend was on his way to Brussels - but fortunately I still reached him before some of the phone network went down, and knew he was safe. My best friend - who I swear had a knack for missing terrorist attack by a hair, bless her -was supposed to fly there today because she was planning to come home for Easter, but fortunately her plane was not until later and she's safe with family abroad.
Those closest to me are safe, but at this point I'm unsure if any of my ex-colleagues are among the dead.
I actually had to pass Brussels today - and at about 19:30 (still full rush hour, normal) the city ring looked like a damn ghost town, the airport exit closed off entirely.
It's surreal, really. These are all places I know so well.
I think I'm still a bit numbed, not even shocked or surprised - just, disheartened.
As it progresses, I'm mostly worried for the fallout, how politicians will use this to promote their agenda.
At the moment the country is in phase 4 alert (which is fancy speak for lockdown). The evacuated several stations, a hospital, even a nuclear plant.Air traffic is supposed to remain down for at least another day, public transport will be heavily disrupted.
I guess we'll know more by morning.

When there was an explosion at the Boston Marathon a few years ago, I had the exact same surreal feeling. Seeing places I know SO well like that is really scary and jarring.
So many thoughts and prayers to the city and country.

I experienced something a little similar-- I'm an alumnus of UC Santa Barbara, where there was the Isla Vista shooting in 2014-- and it is so surreal. Places you know so well... *hugs*
