Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
17 murders since the Natl Guard called in. Yeah, they're protecting all the tourist shit.
Yeah, I was looking at a map that showed where there had be reports of violence or looting, and I noticed there was a perimeter around the Inner Harbor area, where everything just stopped.
Well, there's often a perimeter around there.
I haven't seen a cop in my hood in a couple weeks. I usually see one at least hanging out at the Y a few times a week.
I'm so sorry for your loss, Matt.
And Consuela, your's as well.
I hope things calm down in Baltimore.
I'm sorry about your dog and the neighborhood worries, Consuela.
I'm on a fb fight. I have a wedding. I'm over it.
I just spilled a much needed drink on the carpet.
My hair is dyed, I will swim at (fuck me) 9am.
My city in flux.
Thanks, folks.
I admit that I'm looking at her, and she's having trouble getting around, but she's still just herself, and I dunno. I may cancel the appointment. I don't want to deprive her of any good life.
good luck, Consuela. That's so hard.
Seattle is a little ridiculous with the May Day stuff. Anarchists and obnoxiousness, but also overblown drama--helicopters from news circling all day (and still circling, I can hear them!). Though at one point I saw (on TV, though it was only a few blocks from my house) cops lined up in the street each holding a bike as sort of a shield, and walking forward (to try to move the protestors) by having a line of bikes across the street (like, the bikes were perpendicular to the direction they were walking--they weren't on bikes or next to them walking them). It was so weird.
I'm about to go walk my second 5K in 2 weeks. Because I am INSANE. (It would be less insane if I hadn't just gotten back last night from Chicago, or if I hadn't had 2 back-to-back trips in the last week, or if I didn't have a giant blister on my right foot. But I REALLY want that finisher's medal.)
Damnit, have to get a move on today. I really crave normalcy, but ain't gonna get it. And that's just. Hell, I was just arguing that.
Time to apply a bra and go out in public.
