This is my boat. They're part of my crew. No one's getting left. Best you get used to that.

The whole food conversation inspired me to come home and make my junky version of a taco salad, ground beef cooked with onions and salsa, cheese, & whatever veg in the fridge, plus corn chips.

I chose Cloudburst because I liked it best out of the options and I'm rapidly losing the ability to make decisions today. The enormity of my To Do list is making me flip out like a mammal. It's nice to have these distractions right now because I can ignore the news completely.

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

OK, 8 hours was too much of a commitment today. I'll stick it out, but these last couple of hours are haaaard.

That seems like the best reason?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I was wrong, I do have a casserole dish. It's part of the huge set of Pyrex my sister gave me last Christmas (which I haven't unpacked yet) because hope springs eternal, I guess. Thanks anyway though, -t! Some good stuff on that site.

Oh, good. It would've been cheap to buy but possibly pricey to ship, those things can get heavy.

I saw something about that case. The campus cop part was what struck me. I didn't know campus police carried weapons, for one

It's a huge problem. I remember from when I lived in DC there are something like 27 different bodies with arrest authority, including various campus and housing authority "police". DC is probably at the far end but it goes on all over.

Think about that when you think about the already sorry state of training and professionalism that is becoming apparent of late. (Or was always apparent and is not becoming recognized.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, Steph, that's...terrifying? Disturbing? Sad?

Oh yeah, DC is over the top on the number of different types of cops!

I think when I travel I'm going to stay in the protected tourist zones.
