Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
No, thank god, that'll be up to our UK team. I'm tragedy-ed out right now.
I'm glad it's not you. And yeah, enough tragedies already, although looks like they are gonna keep on coming.
I think I'm gonna go watch the clip of the woman in Oklahoma finding her dog again.
I got an email this morning from a higher up saying he would miss the XYZ call because he was headed to the west coast for the Shire meeting. He is not noticably short or hairy of foot, but it still made me smile.
Thanks, ita, I will check them out.
Not looking at the news until after work.

And I'm having good-bye drinks this afternoon, and I have a sinking suspicion that hardly anyone will show up.
And I don't have a job.
And people suck.
ION, I'm bummed that I no longer live around the corner from the Museum of the Moving Image: [link]
Hang in there, Suela.
Oh Consuela. Hugs and ma. Schedule something fun this weekend will you? Even for 2 hours.
The London shit is TOO much. I heard about it on NPR and just found it unbelievable.
