Just to put today into some kind of perspective...

I agree with you ...

it's a day. A Friday, thank goodness, and payday, thank goddess. What more perspective does it need?

Is there anything specific about today?

As far as the BBC is concerned, the only thing newsworthy today is a memorial service for a woman who died 10 years ago, survived by her two sons and an ex-husband.

Ah, right. I'd somehow forgotten about that.

It's also ten years and a week since you moved in to your current house, I think :)

[grey-lady.livejournal.com]

Quite true. Although I don't consider that newsworthy either. :)

[agentrayevyn.livejournal.com]

Oh, I think I remember that. That was today?

Don't get me started on that....

This might help too. (http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article2326662.ece)

Why is a page of deaths putting today into perspective? That's a bit depressing.

None of my dear ones are on that list. I find that somewhat cheering.
