No napping where other people (co-workers) can see me.
Yesterday, my life's like, 'Uh-oh, pop quiz!' Today it's like, 'rain of toads.'

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

What the actual fuck, BBC:
The LSE said Panorama reporter John Sweeney posed as one of its professors on a study trip in order to film undercover in the country.
The union's Alex Peters-Day said the BBC used students "as a human shield".
Sweeney said the students were told a journalist was with them but that the LSE was not as it was not an LSE trip.
And of course the students deny that they knew there was a journalist along with them, as John Sweeney was pretending to be an LSE history professor.
Because, you know, we just loved losing all of the public's trust over the Jimmy Saville Newsnight thing, why not do it all over again with PANORAMA???

Art Crawl!!!
I took today off to finish moving and I'd gotten to the point of just staring at stuff so I moved one of the last big paintings and realized that I probably need lunch. So I'm taking a break to eat, watch Mad Men and visit my buffistas.
I'm trying to tackle a room that I need things out of and haven't touched. Egads, I have alot of stuff.
Also, there are rooms that just won't get done. Argh.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Current workplace is putting on the pressure not to leave. Sure it makes me feel like the prettiest girl at the dance at times, but it isn't much fun.
Explain to them that it's traditional in business to show appreciation with MONEY and POSITION and whinging about loyalty is a bit hollow as you learned loyalty meant jack shit the last time you got laid off.

Ginger, we're not near there so we're fine.

Whew, I texted my brother and he's fine (didn't even know about the explosions until I asked if he was ok). And my other Boston relatives are out in the suburbs, nowhere near downtown.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
Holy shit! What is going on?
