Most exciting involved a mentally ill woman who was throwing things and screaming. It was pretty disturbing. The police came and took her to the ER, and a huge crowd gathered.

People in public libraries deal with "exciting" shit all the time, but it's really rare in an academic library. All we usually get is tears about un-saved papers.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I was up all night with an evil stomach flu. Am home from work today and laying around like a lump.

There's a chance that we'll be getting the same nasty crap tommy is on saturday. I'm not excited.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Ow! The plastic spoon I'm eating my yoghurt with cut my lip. This is ecology exacting a price for me using disposables, isn't it?

Ugh, scrappy. Is it over now?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

So... the planet has begun to fight back.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

flea, that poor girl! I hope she's better today.

I was up all night with an evil stomach flu. Am home from work today and laying around like a lump.

Ick! Take it easy today and do some sort of evil-ridding rituals.

Shut yo' mouth. I don't have any windows and prefer to live in ignorance.

My day thus far: up at 5:30, left at 6:15, arrived at work at 7:15. I will be here till 9 tonight for the Fine Arts Booster meeting. Yay?

Not QUITE over yet. I will psare you the details.

In exciting news, today is the first day we have a cleaning lady! We are having her twice a month for $50 per visit. SUCH luxury, OMG. I will be cutting back on haircuts and dying my own hair to pay for it, but it's so worth it. I love clean floors, but both the DH and I hate mopping, so it was a the one part of the house which was almost never really clean.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Feel better, Scrappy! And enjoy your cleaning lady!

It's almost 70 degrees here.
