You're already at a computer. You're upright and everything! The rest is easy. I couldn't get out of bed for two hours after I woke up. I finally convinced myself to come in by deciding that I could leave early on Friday. So you can do that, too.

As Arthur Dent once said: "It must be a Thursday. I never could get the hang of thursdays."

As if you couldn't have guessed.)

Just make sure it isn't a copy of The Silence of the Lambs , amych.
