Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesse, are you in a position to say, "Since they're already working on the house, can I pay for the other windows?" even if it has to be on the installment basis? Because she'll get a better deal doing them all at once and having any windows that haven't been upgraded kind of negates the energy-efficiency aspects.

Oh, that would have been a good idea. But it's too late now, and I'm just letting it go. The not-being-done windows are the ones that are very close to the house next door, so it's not as bad as it could be.

Ann, that's a ferret.

And now police are going door to door in the neighborhood where UC is located, advising residents to leave. WHAT THE HELL.

The police may be worried that there'll be a riot no matter what the grand jury decides. In today's atmosphere, I wouldn't rule out the possibility.

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

I think some of the problem is I am in a bad position of being not a super beginner, and not (yet?) really good at it. It's hard dance, and sometimes the more you know that you don't know...much like starting a job and not feeling overwhelmed until a few months in.

That makes total sense. I wish you didn't feel that way, though!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'm feeling extremely cynical today, and I can't help but think that the police wants there to be a riot, and is helping to incite one.

Yeah, and wtf is the point of evacuating people? Do they think they are getting potential rioters dispersed, or keeping non-rioters out of harm's way?

Okay, so the press conference should start any minute now.

I hate to say this, Rebecca, but your child is not that bright.

I am reminded of the hats I wore every day in the winter....as far as the corner of my street. It is not that hard to get over on your parents!

I think getting non-rioters out of harm's way. It sounds like they were going to off-campus student housing.
