So, there's the big parade this afternoon. This morning, I went to see one of my profs, and he was answering his 10th e-mail on whether or not there would be class during the parade.

Now I'm sitting in the cafeteria, listening to people complain about the fact that profs are upset because people are skipping due to the parade.

I find it all kind of humorous.

I'm trying to convince myself that I need to stop watching the parade and get my car inspected. It's not working yet.

Oops! I killed the thread.

gronk. Do I have to go to work today?

GC, I heard about that on KPCC. OMG! As if the 405 isn't bad enough. I'm curious how that got to be?? Crazy!

ION. Aaaahhhhhh death by papercuts (not literally papercuts, just a cajillion stupid little things bogging my poor brain down and making work not go fast & smooth... so what do I do. Catch up on Bitches of course (it was only 11 posts!)

Jilli, I have to share this with you because I know it will make you happy. My school is big into the Halloween thing, and the seniors create a full-on haunted house every year that the entire school has a chance to go through. To build spoooooky dread and anticipation for tomorrow, about a dozen seniors are wandering around today in full baby-goth mourners' attire, complete with lacy, black veils. They creep up behind the middle schoolers and make them scream. It's cracking me up.

t still not here

Obviously, they're not wearing enough pink.

Kristin, that's awesome! Tell them I approve muchly.

Also, Jane Espenson guest blogging for Jennifer Crusie.

Well, I went to work. Or rather my training class on how to give book talks. Which , except for the brief period of time that I was filmed giving a book talk - it means listening to other people give book talks. So we are talking low to no effort. I am exhausted. so I went and picked up my books for Thursday storytime - and said no more work for me today or tomorrow. This is a very annoying cold.
