  Embussed, on a crowded bus full of high school kids with ridiculously big backpacks. I was THAT cranky middle aged woman reminding them to put their bags on their laps so others can sit down. Why, oh, why can’t parents travel-train their children?

  Saturday night in #ApartmentLyf, a gathering in a flat up the hallway, all you can hear are very loud voices, sounding off in disagreement, followed by strangled-cat-karaoki, & by rhythmic clapping. Someone (not me) has already banged at their door begging them to keep it down.

  Tonight’s trip to #MidsomerMurders has been preempted by the French Open Tennis. My murder fix will be satisfied by a visit to Foyle’s War (not bookshop) with the excellent Michael Kitchen.
