Back at work 4 hours and I already have a headache. If I still had any doubts about being allergic to this building, they are gone.
Angel: How're you feeling? Faith: Like I did mushrooms and got eaten by a bear.

Thank you.
Eventing: my livefeed on my iphone is working! And sadly,
a horse may have been lost. Saw the horse ambulence driving off but didn't hear what the commentator said.
NBC livefeed for Eventing: that commentator is lovely. A knowledgeable person with a British accent.

For Royal watchers, this post at Royal Order of Sartorial Splendor has a nice collection of pictures of European royals with their adorable kids enjoying the Games. Prince Phillip is looking particularly spry.

I saw footage of him watching the dressage and thought he looked as if he'd shrunk, but he was wearing a jaunty hat.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
sumi, I hope your kittycat feels better soon.
also sumi, you'll know this: what's the white stuff on some of the jumpers' legs?
This morning: watching horses jump over things and not getting any work done.

Okay, so if Wills and Harry are 6'3 and 6'4, that new wifey's pretty fricking tall, no? Even with heels.

The stuff smeared on their front legs?
There is/was a fad to smear something (vaseline?) on horses for cross-country under the theory that it help them slip over jumps better. . . Must be a lot of trouble for the grooms and doesn't seem to be as prevalent.
Otherwise: often times horses run with bell boots on as protection for their feet.
