A water main break somewhere around the MFA caused most of the buildings on the Huntington Ave side of the HMS quad to be locked this morning. I wasn't allowed into the building I work in, so I spent half an hour sitting in the cafeteria waiting to find out if I was going to be starting my vacation a day early. They did turn the water back on, and unlocked all the buildings in question, so here I sit.

At least the rest of today ought to be quiet. My boss and my grandboss are both out, and the P&R materials for September are posted, so now we can sit around and wait for people to do whatever it is they're going to do with them. September being the first meeting of the year, we do things a little differently. I'm not complaining, though; I don't have to beg people to submit their votes this time. And today is Dog Day in the office again, so we've got a 12-week-old pit/lab mix puppy whose owner's cube is conveniently located next to the printer. Every time I print something, I lose five minutes playing with the puppy. (Horrors.)

I finally had to break down and buy a new umbrella yesterday, which of course meant I didn't need one yesterday. I'm not sure whether I want to baptize the new one today, or whether I want it to hold off raining until I get home. Either way, the air feels like it has to rain soon.

This is the coolest thing I've seen all week: http://panoramas.dk/mars/greeley-haven.html
