Bomb Threats and B-Movies
Yup, we had a bomb threat at school today. Had to evacuate the building, stand outside and freeze. Oh it was a blast. No pun intended. Turned out there wasn't actually a bomb in the building but...well, the kids'll certainly be talking about it tomorrow.
Talked to a crazy mother today. Always a pleasure. She had three children, you know; she can't possibly be expected to call 15 teachers. But I'm expected to call 120 parents? WTF?
This weekend I watched Shark Tale and Boogie Nights. Let me tell you, neither is really one to write home about, and I don't think you'll have missed anything if you don't see them.
Was going to go to the gym today. And then didn't. Bad Lady, No Donut.
I am about halfway through Memoirs of a Geisha and the story is FINALLY starting to pick up. The first third really bored me because it seemed so...predictable. Of course she's going to be maltreated as a household servant; what else could possibly happen? But now that's really getting out there in Gion, it's becoming more interesting.
Off to nurse a headache.

bomb threats are fun in summertime, not so cool in the winter.
Real bombs, the opposite.

Two things: I liked the movie but haven't read the book.
Is it a good or bad thing your school's threat didn't get news coverage?

Our school used to get bomb threats all the time. News coverage would only please and encourage the perpetrators.

Very true yet some do anyway. A school this afternoon for instance.
