Unrelated to anything, I'm reading a newish Laura Lippman, with a pretty unflattering depiction of the people involved with a tv shoot, which I think is kind of funny, given that she's married to David Simon. t /random
I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

You should have seen me in the library, trying to remember her name. I know it was the same initial twice... Finally I went to a computer, and still didn't have enough to search for her, until I remembered keywords! I think Baltimore + mystery did it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I called a guy out recently on repeatedly using queue as a verb. It was really weird coming from someone with an American accent. He said he'd lived in Amsterdam for a couple months. Which explained...nothing.

OK, new tropical storm forming off Africa. Name is Igor. Such a name brimming with good omens.
If NC has to get hit with a hurricane this year, I hope it's named "Igor." Hurricane Fran caused problems, but the name suggested sassy waitress more than 37 deaths and millions of dollars worth of damage.

Dude, I just found my department $5000+/month of money they had not gotten re-imbursed for since January. That more than covers their costs for keeping me on as a consultant.
