Good morning, squirrels and anybody listening to this. This is Doctor Hannibal Lecter, and I have a class to teach, so we'll make this quick, shall we? Here is the news for yesterday.

In school, Friendship and Stabbing pulled equipment out of a giant gashapon machine. Some of which was...interesting, to say the least, and Uma couldn't see the point of an ugly hat. I must confess, neither can I, unless it should be extraordinary in some other way.

Urban Survival discussed basic human needs and which are most important. Breq had feelings about freedom and the positive and negative implications of exercising it, and Uma was of the opinion that you could make up for a lack of some things with an abundance of others, which sounds eminently sensible.

And lastly Art painted the walls with shaving cream and food coloring. Summer painted a screaming sun, Tip went for a winter landscape, Eric made a before- and after-Fandom self-portrait, and Peridot threw herself into her work. Literally. It's good to see enthusiasm.

Apart from that, in town Sidon was at Furnado working, with kittens on his shoulders, and Brooke was sketching at the Perk, where she met with Seivarden, who discussed clothing, and Summer, who discussed the usual quietness of the coffee shop with her, and radio with Seivarden.

And that would appear to be it, so I will be getting some coffee before my class. I wish you all a good week.
