There has been a bombing in Oslo. Looks like the prime minister's office was the target.

Holy crap! I hope the deaths and injuries were as minimal as possible. Norway caught people involved in an al-Qaeda bomb plot about a year ago. [link] I wonder if this is related.

I broke a sweat between getting out of the shower and putting on my shirt this morning. That does not bode well for the day.

I'm seeing explicit statements that there was not a second explosion. [link]
Work is going to start load reduction procedures. Which involves running the ac less and switching over to diesel generators for some systems. The same ones that didn't come on when we lost power a couple weeks ago.
Maybe I should just go home now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
OK, fuck it -- the person I was trying to set up a quick conversation with this morning hasn't responded at all to my 5pm email. I'm closing my work email and going out to enjoy my day off!

Get some gelato today, Jesse.
Be careful Norwegians!
Matilda woke up this morning, looked at me and held up three fingers, "Alice in Wonderland 3. I just dreamed it. She went into a castle, and there was a room, and there was a man in the room. And he had a fox face. It was very furry. And he could shoot bullets but he wasn't going to shoot little kids."
Then she made a little gesture somewhere about six inches over her head and explained, "He had a point on his head and the bullets come out there."
"Then what happened?"
"She was dancing in a ballroom. There were a lot of people. The man with the fox face was going to shoot people wearing metal." (Armor, I think.)
