OMG, my commute was such a clusterfuck! The van was ten minutes late, ten extra minutes of standing in the cold and rain waiting, then of course we were stuck in the traffic which made him late, and then he took a ridiculous route, which luckily meant I could hop out actually closer to my house. On the upside, I then went and got a free grilled cheese sandwich. But I just got home, 55 minutes later than I should have.
Everybody plays each other. That's all anybody ever does. We play parts.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ick, Jesse!
Looks like my commute is going to be complicated, as well: the protests downtown are screwing with the bus schedules again, and I shall have to do some hiking. Happily, I remembered to wear loafers this morning, so the walk won't be a problem.

Free grilled cheese sandwich, yum!
Consuela, my roommate just got sent home early because there is rioting (what precisely constitutes rioting, anyway? Are they really rioting, or just angrily milling about PENDING the rioting?) at the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. To which she said "Yes, that makes sense. The anarchists hate liberal activist judges just as much!"

Rioting at the courthouse? Oy.
There was apparently a plan to Occupy Child & Protective Services. WTF.

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

... because social workers are the 1%???

The claim was that a woman lost custody because she was an Occupier.
Me, I suspect there was something more going on.
And even if she did, I don't think that justifies interfering with the legitimate service CPS provides.
Bullshit like this makes me lose a lot of sympathy, I gotta say.

Yeah, this is why I'm not sure I want the Occupy movement as the voice of my generation.
I want a free grilled cheese sandwich!
But I have lamb meatballs in the oven and a couscous salad (recipe courtesy Megan Walker!) on the counter, so I suppose I'll survive.
