I nearly got trapped inside Caribou this morning.
So I instantly thought of dogs in elk
Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

Something is wrong when it is only the grumbly unmorning people postingsara, you claim to be a nonmorning person, and yet you SO ARE. just face facts.

Actually, the biggest culprit in the media scare was the local TV media, who interrupted all their programming (and in once case went without commercial breaks) to breathlessly give a minute by minute account of the "scare". Because, working here in downtown Boston, mere blocks from some of the Mooninite sites there really wasn't much of a fuss at all.
As far as I'm concerned, we had a pretty good "this is not a test" drill of Boston emergency procedures AND we got somebody else to pay the bill for it. I actually do feel kind of safer.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I am highly disappointed in the lack of snow storm -- it's supposed to rain here later. NOT COOL.
Also I am disappointed in the fact that it's been taking me an hour or more to get to work all week. It's a 45 minute commute! OK, maybe 50. But not 65, for crying out loud!!
And I have a lot of work to do and no motivation to do it. Ah well.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
hah! And suddenly morning people!Take that back! It's just mean. And will create an unreasonable expectations of me.

Oh... responding to a post that is probably hours old.
I plead the persistent headache I've had all morning -- woke up with it, and it's outlasted my best attempts to get rid of it. I've tried everything short of snorting Drano.

and yet you SO ARE. just face facts.
I am ONLY when I'm 3 timezones behind my normal one and there are interesting people to talk to and interesting things to do! I can even manage to roll out of bed and be cheery every so often in those circs, but you may note that usually I went straight to shower and get dressed before joining the People.
Getting up to go for work? NSM.
I nearly forgot my coffee this morning. That tells you something.

right, sara. It seems it's not morning you object to but WORK. Which makes perfect sense to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Does the large work okay if it's loose at the calf?
Better than nothing, I think. The Ace bandage solution wasn't working well, and it destroys the bandage so quickly.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Buffista parent alert: Jon Stewart is a guest on Jack's Big Music Show today at noon on Noggin. Set your tivos. It's the Groundhog Day episode and he's wearing ear flaps. So. Damn. Cute.
