No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

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

Why do I crave Coke? Please make it stop.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

god. i hope people show up.

They totally will.

I am incredibly tired. It really pisses me off that the more tired I get, the less I can sleep. Yesterday I had to wake up at 5:30. OK, fine, whatever. Today I woke up at 6:30 all on my own!

And I don't want to do any work. So there.

Yeah, what is up with that? I complain to my housemate last night about how hard it has been to wake/get up at 7 this week because I feel so tired, and then this morning I wake up at 5:30 for no good reason.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I managed to get about seven hours of sleep last night, which is a lot for me (I usually average 5-6 hours during the work week). At least the weather's been cool enough the past few days to offer really comfortable sleeping temps--I even had the sheet over me last night!

You'll be a hit, paperdol!

Me too.

Please don't tell me this! I've been up since 4:30 to get Mr. Jane to the airport, run some errands, get out to FW for an event (an hour and a half in traffic-event sucked anyway), got back to work about an hour ago. Will run home from work at luch to let the dogs out-which leaves me no time for acutal lunch, and then finally leave work at 7:30 and probably make it home at 8:00.

YIKES. I would die.

Edited to add: Oh DEAR, Daisy. That's a hell of a day!

paperdol!

Every time I read about y'all reading the books slowly...well, I'm looking at you funny. I plowed through that thing, not even looking up to walk out on the balcony.

But I'm like that with books.

I work on a unix system at my job and I hate it.

See, I prefer the unix system. Much of my computering life has been lived on the command line. And the rest of it on macs. I've spent much of today trying to find some stupidly named copyrighted, trademarked,proprietary, licensed widgetx on the desktop that does the equivalent of 8 letter and a space on a command line. And dealing with my mail through an awkward web interface. And not being able to find folders on the network.

And freezing my ass off because I'm in the half of the computer room that doesn't have the bigass Space Odyssey (for 2007!) blinking boxes pouring out heat. I may have to resort to cuddling up to the 15K next door to defrost my appendages. Except I'm afraid a robotic arm would reach out and I'd be consumed by the sinister blinking box.
