LinkedIn just showed me people I might like to connect to and juliana's name was in there!!! How do they know??? We don't work in the same industry or city, haven't worked for the same company, and didn't attend the same college. Spooky.
Don't you have an elsewhere to be?

I spent the morning trying to get my work laptop working from home. None of my connections were functioning, and wouldn't until I had to call the help desk (outsourced to Perot down in Texas, for some godawful reason) four separate times and my boss twice. Yuck. Everything works now, but I'm not touching any of my cords until Friday night, in case everything blows up again.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That is so freaking creepy, Gloomcookie -- whenever they ask if I know people, I always know two out of three, with no obvious connection. Right when I joined, they asked if I knew my cousin -- not the same name, location, occupation, alma mater, nothing! So weird.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I thought we were in the Information Age, but that could just be marketing jargon infiltrating my subconscious.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
When one says Bronze Age, for instance, what order of size is the Age?
Thousands and thousands of years. Basically, everything between the Stone Age and the Iron Age. (The Greeks and Romans were Iron Age -- The Trojan War was Bronze Age, but the nexus of Greek civilization was Iron).

No apologies needed - I was just like, how'd they know?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
We were in the Atomic Age, then the Jet Age, and then then the Space Age.
Not sure what age we're in now. Perhaps historians will later name it. Maybe the "Non-Reality Based Age." Or the "Pre-Everything Went to Hell Age."
