Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

More Fox efforts to tar Dems with Foley

At a certain point, it becomes hard to dismiss it as a mistake.

Also, Royals, not the worst team in baseball. Next year I'm hoping for less than 100 losses.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I've gotten some stuff done today, and I'm not sure what to do next, so I think I'm done with working. Maybe I can do some organizing or something, but my brain is done.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Poor Jesse's brain.

Sadly, it's not that it's been so super-taxed lately. I'm just sleeeepy, I think still from the Sunday Night Sleeping Fiasco.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Gah. Lately I've been feeling really out of it most afternoons. Right now I feel light-headed....

Are you eating enough for lunch and/or drinking enough water?

Ooh -- I can go get some water myself. That will waste some time. And then later I can go pee, thereby wasting even more time!

Yeah. Although I suppose it could be what I'm eating. Maybe I should look for trends....

Today I had a Filet-o'-Fish, fries and diet coke. But lately I've been avoiding McDs more than usual.

I have to say, I'd never thought I'd see that stated as a means of passing time....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's such a crazy plan, it just might work.

It's totally my old standby from super-boring jobs. You can waste half the day just with water! Even better if you run into people on your way to or from the kitchen or bathroom.

I'm not even joking.
