I wait in line all day and into the night. For some World of Warcraft sequel? I had no idea; I play along. A co-worker admits that he played games as a kid so that he would understand the computers when he got a job and now he has a job to pay for the […]
Mission(s) accomplished? No Ladycop last night; ’round town strolls instead led us to The Half (where else?). Creighton has unleashed Pimm’s. No one in this town carries The Orb; neither new nor previously enjoyed. However, Saturday was filled with almost too many serendipitous moments. Today seems to lend itself to gardening.

Argh. This book was maddening. Coming off the heels of Generation X and Microserfs, I suppose my expectations were pretty high but this really felt like the literary equivalent of bottoming out.
