Last Friday

(I took this on my phone)
(Naoko at Beat)

Also,

Patience and patience! Hence -- that word was made
For brutes of burthen, not for birds of prey;
Preach it to mortals of a dust like thine, --
I am not of thine order.

That's from Manfred by Lord Byron, which I read for the first time this week. From now on I will recite this in my head to talk myself down whenever I start feeling so superior I get pissed off. Aspiring friends, please form an orderly line.
