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.

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

So, I'm back and work today, and people keep calling me or coming up to my cube and asking me for things! What's up with that?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I know, right?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

People want to have conversations too. Like, about how my holidays were.

The nerve of them.

I know the feeling, Tom. Here I am, barely managing consciousness, and these students keep expecting me to teach or something. Craziness!

I just remembered that I had a long involved dream this morning in which I discovered that Clark Kent, over the last two years of Smallville, had been living an extra life as a congressman who changed parties (GOP-ward), won re-election, and personally saved 58 people from Katrina. I know it's been a while since I watched, but WOW.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

You know what I can't figure out? Why, at work, people keep calling me and asking me work-related type questions. What the fuck is the matter with these people, anyway?

Fuckmonsters.

I had a long, involved dream where my professor, Patrick Dempsey, was yelling at me and calling me a liar because I tried to sneak out of class to retrieve the paper that was due and had left in my dorm.

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

It's a conspiracy. My bosses want to bill our clients, and in exchange our clients want some work done for them. Who gets screwed? Me! The little guy.

I have to take six pages and turn them into five pages that cover information not included in the original six pages. Argh.

Smaller font and bigger margins, Jesse.
