These conventioneers are boring. I’m sure they’re nice people and all, but after midnight last night it was dead out on the streets, even for a Wednesday. Everywhere I went, the hum of the city was...

everything, everything, everything, in its right place
I overslept today. Or rather I should just say that I slept. I didn’t oversleep, unless you want to count work, which while I had planned on going in around four this afternoon, just wasn’t going to...
