Bah! on people with guns and bombs threatening schools.
ION, we have a chance of snow tonight.
Does anybody else miss the Mayor? 'I just want to be a big snake.'

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

Art Crawl!!!
I think that they need to come up with a better word for it than "lockdown". . . .it could be a fluffy pink alert. That way everyone would know that it's not serious. . . yet.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Ay yai yai.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Too true -- from what my friends were saying, it's kind of the alert equivalent of a fire alarm (get everyone in order, out, and accounted for) rather than the firemen breaking down the doors with axes, but the name really strikes me as an artefact of the whole macho-paranoid security climate.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Now WTOP is saying NINE schools are locked down. And I don't know if it's changed, or if I just misread it the first time.

Punishingly Intricate
I *just* realized why one of the tech's at the vet's office looks so familiar: she bears a passing resemblence to Abby on NCIS. Same hair, coloring, personal style, chirpy warm personality.
Oh she's my favorite one!
Matt, I hope your dad's clot clears up soon. And that that's his last trip to the hospital for a good long time.
My co-worker brought in pumpkin whoopie pies that his wife the professional baker made. so so yummy. the filling has little bits of crystallized ginger.

Meet Thumbelina, the world's smallest horse
Standing just 17 inches tall, she is never going to be a champion show-jumper.
In fact, the tiny mare is so small she would struggle to leap over a bucket.
But such things are of little concern for feisty Thumbelina who has just been officially recognised as the world's smallest horse.
The thing is 60 lbs. Kinda like a midsize dog.

How on earth do they find shoes for Thumbelina?
edit: Maybe they just twist some paperclips around to the right size.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
There's an opposite to the crystal-clear clarity state. It's when you get only five hours of sleep. I know it now.
