It's the Classics library at the University of Cincinnati - where a staff member died a couple of weeks ago. (The Librarian had an ultrasound about a potential aortic aneurism this morning before meeting with me, but she seemed pretty confident she herself was not in danger of dying suddenly. Confident enough to joke about it.) She's very nice, but picky. I will NOT be online at work, I am very sure.
They should film that story and show it every Christmas.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Oh, wonderful. Westboro Baptist is coming to protest at the Penn State football game on Saturday.

not your mom's socks.
How is it that Westboro has the money for going on their snazzy and classy family vacations still? When I don't?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Whoa. That episode of Flashpoint was really intense.
However I'd really like to either be sleeping or not be in pain. This week is so fucked. And my work phone is still forwarded to my home phone, so calls were coming in. At least I've turned on DND. That was easier than logging and unforwarding.

Ugh, I wish you were sleeping or not in pain, ita.
I have bee PTSD. I was calm, bee-blocked the cat that thought it'd be the bestest buzzy toy ever, captured it, took it outside to bee freedom. Success!
Then my sister texted me and I really need to turn the vibrate off of my phone for a bit.

Do you get ION? The first of the eps--the one that starts with the wedding.
I'm gonna try sleeping again too, once I make sure I have nothing at work important to do.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I honestly cannot figure out how to make Facebook read coherently. I can't seem to figure out how to filter through information, and everything goes too damn fast. Every time I try to go to the site (because that's where the people are, unfortunately), I end up navigating away with my anxiety levels through the roof.
Any hints on how to make the thing more user friendly?
