A very rainy day today. Good lord, my joints hurt. On the plus side, the cat has started sleeping next to me at night--I think he was looking for someone else--which is nice and snuggly, but he occasionally wants attention at 3 AM.

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.
you've got to either spread hummus all over your face or contribute to Friends of the IDF
Local news is running a story about a restaurant in Taiwan with a pasta dish with German sausage that they called...Long Live the Nazis. Under pressure, they have now changed it to Long Live Purity.
The worst sofa in the history of mankind
I cannot with people. (Although that sofa might actually be the best?)
I am pretty sure that a fraternity house needs that sofa.
If a man got arrested for having sex with that sofa, I wouldn't need to ask why he would even do that.
It looks like swallowing would be done, and not necessarily in a happy way.
You guys! What is up with the perversely ugly sofas, bad social media campaigns, and pro-Nazi pasta dishes? This is supposed to be my happy place!
I was at the Arcade Fire concert last night
See! That's better. Sorry it has filled you with gronk, Jesse.
I am at work getting prepped for classes on Monday. Sigh.
Timelies all!
Another busy day. We took the train to Bletchley Park and spent a good part of the afternoon walking around and looking at the displays. Other than my multimedia guide running out of power a half hour in, and my lower back not being happy with all the standing/ walking, it was good.
After we got back to London, we walked around and looked at various of the book benches, with a stop at Waterstones for British mysteries.
Hey, Maryland peeps, my BiL and nephew are out there right now! I'd tell you to wave if you seem them but don't know if I could describe them in any recognizable way. If you see anyone who looks like they just got there from Portland, OR, maybe, wave? Nephew is starting his junior year at St. John's in Annapolis after being at the NM campus the past two years
Looks like I'll be at my Aunt's for the weekend and into the week, which should be a nice break.
My Internet isn't working but I can't go anywhere it IS working because they are sending someone to fix it....sometime between 9AM and 8PM. Well, noon and 8 now, since no one has come. Makes working from home difficult (I can tether to my phone but it's not fun)
