(no subject)

I came this close to calling in sick this morning (one of my sinuses is playing the 'Unbalance Camwyn's Head And Back Up Down Her Throat' game). Decided not to. Left my skates home, yeah, but didn't call in sick- I'll just go home and nap for a while after work, thought I.

Then I come in and the first words I hear out of the telly are 'an incident in London'.

Beginning to hate the word 'incident' almost as much as I hate the word 'insist', which in the news is code for 'this particular news source doesn't believe word one of what the person/org we're talking about said, but we're repeating it anyway, and you shouldn't believe it either'. Just once I'd like an 'incident' to be, if not something positive, then at least something interestingly Fortean. As it stands it's all bombs and meltdowns and chemical releases and somebody's political leader barfing on somebody else's.

bah. stupid Thursday. will write when I get home.
