The corner of the ceiling in my bedroom is LEAKING. I had to move my bed, the corner of which is soaking wet, and I'll have to sleep in Hannah's room tonight. There is a pot and a towel down, but since it seems to be dripping everywhere and nowhere, I don't have any idea if it'll be enough. This is the same rain that followed my on my drive back from New Hampshire.

I'll post about the wonderfulness of [livejournal.com profile] mr_t00by's class production of The Scottish Play tomorrow. I don't feel like gushing because it's late and because MY ROOM IS LEAKING.

Instead, a meme. I did this last year, but there are more events listed, so I'll try to do different stuff this time.

Type your birthdate (no year) into Wikipedia. Post 3 events, 2 birthdays, and 1 death that happened on that date.


Events:
1817 - First Great Lakes steamer, the Frontenac, is launched. (that one's for [livejournal.com profile] peacey and her t00by love for the Lake Boats)

1989 - The Inuvialuit Final Agreement is signed in Canada to give the Inuit of western Canada the first comprehensive land claim agreement north of the 60th parallel. (that one's for Fraser. :) Wikipedia also linked "Canada" and "Western Canada" here, but I figured you could figure those out without links. *g*)

1989 - The Unknown Rebel halts the progress of a column of advancing tanks for over half an hour after the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989.

Births

1850 - Pat Garrett, American Western lawman. (d. 1908)
1971 - Susan Lynch, Northern Irish actress.

Death:

1999 - Mel Tormé, American singer ("The Velvet Fog"), composer, and actor. (b. 1925)


You can see all of the dates here.

Ooo, can't wait to hear how the Scottish play was!

Oh, well I guess my comment of "stay dry" didn't really apply. So sorry to hear that! So, stay dry-ish? Dry-er? Good luck with the roof?

I'm looking forward to hearing about the play, though.

Kewl beans about the Freighter! I'm assuming the year was different. ;)

Detail about the play, please!

Do you work tonight? I can't keep track anymore. Not that I have done a great job at keeping track in the past. Or something like that. As I posted, I already had alcohol and Sam says I must be dehydrated because I am more buzzed that I should be from one cider. Mmm, cider. Also I want brownies.
