I've been planning planning planning today for my European trip. Tomorrow I will buy tickets, then I will knuckle down and work really really hard so I have enough done by the time I need to go. But today was devoted to travel.
I google-mapped the British Library, where I will be spending most of my time in London, and found this street view picture of it:
You will probably need to fiddle with this picture a little by turning it slightly to the left and slightly upwards, but...
I think it's hilarious that Google Maps picked up the picture of Shakespeare on the wall of the building and automatically blurred his face! And so I am sharing it with you!
By the way, as I write, there is a rat making merry in our kitchen. It is FREAKING ME OUT. It is at times like this I wish I was a) rich so that I had my own fully rodent-secure house, and b) married so I wasn't lying in bed by myself trying not to feel tense and frightened. The drama over the last week... all caused by one rat and one mouse who have taken up residence in our flat and have so far outwitted all attempts at trapping/murdering them. I used to feel slightly bad about the fact that we have to kill them just because they want somewhere warm to live... I no longer care. I just want to sleep securely.

I thought that rat and mice didn't live together. On the real world new york the boy roommates planted a white rat in the house to scare the girls. If you can't beat them..
rat/mouse noises would creep me out too! here's hoping they meet their timely end soon! :)
