What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

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

7.45pm: What happens if we steal their rackets? If we steal their rackets, the zombies can no longer hit their aces and thump their backhands and keep us all prisoner on Court 18. I'm shocked that this is only occurring to me now. Will nobody run onto the court and steal their rackets? Are they all too scared of the zombies' clutching claws and gore-stained teeth? Steal their rackets and we can all go home. Who's with me? Steal their rackets and then run for the tube.

It's 48-48. What further incentive do you need?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

As far as I know, you are not actually entitled to a public opinion about your superior IN THE MILITARY!

That is true. Even in Peace Corps, you are severely discouraged from critcizing the President in any kind of public venue.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

49-49.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Someone explain to me what these numbers mean and why no one has won yet.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

"Everyone is entitled to their opinion"!

Sure, but if you don't use discretion in when, where, and how you express that opinion, you should be prepared for it to bite you in the ass.

You being the proverbial you.

Okay, packing now.

You have to win by two games, and they've been trading back and forth for the last hundred games. And in Wimbledon, you can't play a tiebreaker in the last set.

Aha. And each game is that 0-15-30-40 scoring, right?

And in Wimbledon, you can't play a tiebreaker in the last set.

I'm getting confused on the game-set-match distinction now.

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

Happy Birthday, Tep!

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

So I woke up this morning to discover my cat had thrown up on the floor and defecated in the bathtub. There was blood in her feces. So I took her to the vet - she seems OK. The vet thinks she may have an infection in her intestines or something, so he prescribed pills for that. Her stool sample was fine. I'll find the results of the blood test tomorrow.

And she has a broken canine that's abscessed. Now I feel bad for not noticing that. She'll get that tooth removed in two weeks.

Back at work now.
