Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
So much of the Penn State community's economy is dependent on football, I suppose the NCAA is really trying to walk the fine line so they don't overmuch punish the truly innocent.
Yeah. On football weekends, I think it's something like 10,000 people come into town, and the town has a usual population of about 45,000. And a lot of those people stay at hotels, go to restaurants and bars, buy stuff at stores, and so on. Canceling games would mean pretty much every local business would take an enormous hit. I've seen listings on craigslist of people renting out their apartments for football weekends for $1000 per weekend, so I imagine the hotels must be charging a ton of money those weekends.

Now tagless for your comfort.
The guy I put you in contact with actually spends his summers working with middle school kids on creating and performing their own scripts.
Oh, man! We definitely want to email him!

I'm trying to listen to a Nerdist podcast, but John Barrowman is just so extraordinarily filthy that I had to pause it because it became impossible to smother my laughter.

Well fuck. My awesome boss at my new job is leaving the company. For completely understandable, family-based reasons, but I'm still not thrilled.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't know who the guy on the Jamaican $100 is. I feel like a crap citizen for that.
Jilli--that bites. I hope it has minimal effect on you professionally, even if you miss him.

I know our team is going to band together and try to make sure there's minimal effect on all of us, professionally, but it still is crap news. In a perfect world, our fantastic editor steps up to become tech pubs manager, I take over as editor, and they bring in another writer. I don't think that's likely, but it's what I'd like to have happen.

Bah. I went to the soup company because the website said they had my favorite soup today. But they'd run out, so I got the lobster bisque, and it was nearly inedible. Bleah.
So, lunch is a package of cheese crackers with peanut butter, and a diet coke. Health food!
