I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

This one was more than likely cribbed from the radio series, but:
A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty "Hi Yo Silver!" The Lone Ranger. ["Hi Yo Silver, away!"] With his faithful Indian companion Tonto, the daring and resourceful masked rider of the plains led the fight for law and order in the early west. Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear. The Lone Ranger rides again!

There was also a voiceover recap of the story so far.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Damn, I don't want to go to class tonight. And then I see that one of the major subway lines is all fucked up -- not one I have to take, but I do sometimes. So I'm thinking I should just leave now, so I'm not traveling during rush hour, and do some reading down there at school. But that would involve getting dressed. Hmph.
