the blackbird is involved in what I know

[incandescens]

Sat down earlier today to try to work out some plot points. Like so many other things in life, it came down to stealing books. (Really, is there anything in a Librarian's life that can't be solved by stealing books?)

Bank holiday tomorrow. Scheduled items include scrubbing out the bathroom. Ah, the sweet luxury of being an adult.

I know noble accents
And lucid, inescapable rhythms;
But I know, too,
That the blackbird is involved
In what I know.

Look on the bright side: you have that bathroom ALL to yourself! :D

(Granted, I don't know your living situation, but I assume that you live by yourself.)

This is true, and yes I do. :)

Having the bathroom all to oneself is truly one of life's greatest luxuries. :)

[incandescens]

A fair point.

Enjoy your holiday!

It seems odd, as we have tomorrow as national Holiday as well, but with Jet already out of school, we all already have it "off" anyway...

It's almost stranger when our holidays coincide than when they don't. :)

So very true!
