Oh! Maxpreps gives me live updates on the score at least. I'll see if someone is streaming, but haven't seen it yet. Our team has a 17-0 record and they have 9-0 basically because we have been in more tournaments. 8A game, which means huge schools.
Congratulations to the class of 1999. You all proved more or less adequate.

The Brexit agreement just got crushed in the House of Commons. I wonder how long it will take for May to resign and/or elections to be called.
I saw. 432 to 202 I believe, and over 100 Tories voted with the opposition. They were calling it a historic vote margin—nothing like it since ~1920. Tomorrow's the vote of no confidence, so that'll be fun (for people who aren't Theresa May). I was watching the video on The Guardian, and if the PM could have set people on fire with her mind, I strongly suspect she would have.

Oh! The game is live streaming on FB. Nearly empty stands at what would have been a sold out game.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Over the past few years -- it's the end of the world as we know it, and I feel sick to my stomach.

I can't disagree, Fred.
Distracting myself with watching the game and sending score reports up to MaxPreps. Good game! My team is down 43-38 at the half. New experience for them. I bet they got a taking to at half time. Watching DH talk with them now.

Safety~ma, Laura!
I wonder how long it will take for May to resign and/or elections to be called.
If they call for elections, that's going to make my job much more interesting than I'd like it to be.

Wow - tie 76-76 and going to overtime!
May has to be out after this.

And they won 93-85 in overtime. It was a real nail biter.
The Brexit situation continues to worry me more as time goes on, much like the Trump situation. History will not treat either of those votes kindly.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Congrats to the team, Laura, but what a sad and scary situation.
I spent the afternoon at an interesting training and then got a nice email from my big boss! So I had a good afternoon, anyway.

Timelies all!
We had a two hour arrival leeway at work today, though I got there basically at my usual time.
