Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK. I have 18 things on my bibliography for my not-a-tradiational-research-paper thesis. Several of them are books, the rest are articles. That's enough, right? Right?!?

Bah.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

DANA. HELP. HELP. I AM SO PAINFULLY BORED.

Oh, dear. Okay. I will write up something and send it to you. It will probably suck, but at least you will not die.

That would be keen. I just hope I can get to it.

We keep losing Internet access at work, see. So if I start spamming you with text messages, you'll know I cracked.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm not sure whether the day I was scheduled to have (fully booked, no help) was better or worse than the day I'm actually having (nobody showed up, fuck-all to do, can't just bail early).

Gah! Well, e-mail sent off.

So if I start spamming you with text messages, you'll know I cracked.

Gotcha. I'm also heading home, so if you get desperately insane, call me. We'll make fun of Kevin Sorbo or something.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I wonder if the company realizes how many sales they lose by having an all-flash site, instead of an HTML site, where you can link directly to their products.

Yeah, I gave up pretty fast...

Amych, go home. It's 4pm the Friday before spring break. Who are you expecting, Prince Charles?

It's unbearable hot in my office. Somewhere in the middle of the country, someone's office is absolutely perfect.

That would be me. It's 65° and sunny here with a light breeze, and my office windows are up.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
