Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I'm suddenly very grateful for the horrible winter we had. My cousin's husband usually runs in the Marathon, and my cousin and their two little kids are usually there. But because of how cold the winter was this year, he couldn't get enough training is and decided not to run this year.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Maria, I think I need to wait. I am too triggered at this point already. I need to step away.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

That's fine. Whatever you need, my dear.

For anyone trying to contact people in Boston, the news is reporting that all cell service has been shut down in the city so that no one can remote detonate anything else.

Google has set up a people finder.

And so has the Red Cross.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This page lets you track runners [link] but it's no comfort for the person I just checked -- her finish time isn't there.

Coding and Sleeping

Come to think of it, there is enough information to say this was the work of an asshole.

Our wings are not tired

I knew at least one person in the marathon, thankfully it's been confirmed through other friends in her running group on FB that she is okay.

AN asshole, or multiple assholes.
