The usual heavily armed disaffected young white male opened fire on RCMP officers in Moncton, N.B., killing three and injuring two more. The city is on virtual lockdown while they search for him.
Darn your sinister attraction!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That's awful.

Because books.
Jesus. The world makes me so tired.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wait, was that happening this morning? I seem to recall something about Moncton. Ugh, the world.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Husband has started working from home (and we'll see how that goes, with both of us here), but he's brought his monitors and stuff home, and my current computer desk seems like it will fit his stuff best.
So now I want a new desk. And I yearn for one of those desks with crazy cubbyholes and niches and stuff. Like this.
Except way less expensive.

Or, if you prefer, you can watch the dueling bear cubs [link] I came across while looking for more news.

I do prefer bear cubs, thanks!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Dana, I found a desk like that (apparently they're called secretaries?) on Craigslist for $30.
