Hulu has the musical numbers from Sound of Music, so I'm getting to see the ones I missed. The orchestra is way too loud.
Fuck cancer with a crowbar. My ARP co-chair has thyroid cancer and is having her thyroid removed next month. She has told a total of 3 people, including me. I just....crap.
Go Gracie! I hope her stamina builds fast. She's such an amazing kid.
Went to big party at the president of the uni's house yesterday. It was pretty fun. Good meal anyway.
I'm booking work trips to NYC and Expedia keeps giving me a car rental offer. I'm going to Manhattan, Expedia. I have a MetroCard in my wallet.
My lunch was so tasty, I have to brag about it, even though it wasn't very complicated. Scrambled eggs with sliced turkey, onions, and mushrooms (and a little bacon salt), with whole-grain toast and apricot jam.

Oh, geez, Suzi, I'm sorry. FWIW, one of my co-workers had her thyroid removed a few years ago, and she is doing fine. I hope your co-worker does as well.
The first person I thought of when I heard about Nelson Mandela was ita. I hope she's doing OK today. I'm pretty sad.
I may have shared this here before, but when I was living in Cape Town in 2002, some friends and I went to hear Chinua Achebe speak on campus (University of Cape Town) one night. It was a big but not huge hall, tickets were free to students, and the place was pretty packed. We were in our seats and waiting for the event to start when we became aware of something happening up at the front of the hall and a ripple going through the crowd. Nelson Mandela had entered the hall and was taking a seat in the front row, and people in the hall just went crazy. Clapping, crying, shouting, gasping, standing on chairs, stomping -- everyone in that place just loved him and admired him so much. It was an amazing moment, to be in the presence of greatness and to be caught up in the emotion of all the people there. He meant so much to so many.
Kate, that's incredible.
Keep an eye out for me on the BBCA social media sites making a face - I was just photographed as part of an "Americans eating Marmite" project they're doing in the kitchen. At least, they told me it was for the blog...
